Castor Story - Colorado Basketball Insider
Kicking or Shooting at the Next Level
http://www.coloradobasketballinsider...8/082908A.htmlCastor also found time to attend Colorado football camp, where he kicked a 62-yard field goal. Special teams coach at CU, Kent Riddle, relayed the following observations about Castor following the camp, “Justin has everything you would look for in a college football kicker. He's a big kid with a strong leg who's going to get bigger. Most importantly, however, is Castor has a strong academic profile with a 3.85 GPA and is an articulate young man with an excellent presence."
Wow. 6-5?
Showed well at the CU camp, but I'm really torn on whether we should offer a kicker this cycle.
On the one hand: Jameson is done as a placekicker after having more surgery, Goodman hasn't shown anything on gameday and will be a senior in 2010 anyway, and Grossnickle may end up being a punter.
On the other hand: 4 scholarships invested in kickers/punters is overkill when many of our competitors don't have 1.

Could go any which way.
It's good there are a couple decent kickers interested. Castor has Wyoming offer already.
Kansas Bound.
Good for Castor. It seems like Colorado's really producing a lot of good kickers.
With Berger and Crosby in the NFL, it may make kicking and punting something local kids think about more often.
He switched to the good guys today. Very nice pickup and much needed.
I'll be interested in what Alferd has to say on this. But I thought Castor was the best kicker in the state (with Kip getting all the hype). I'm very excited about this commitment.
Hmmmm, 6-5 huh. If he gets one blocked, at least he can get the rebound. Welcome young man.
stoked. With 2 new scholarship kicker/punters here... Money better NEVER EVER SEE THE FIELD AGAIN.
At the very least, he better have a REALLY short leash. He should not have free reign to miss several kicks and still keep his job.
holy **** its raining recruits
