Go Ben Dato. I was extremely impressed with Ben's punting when I traveled to Fordham last year. Maybe it was because Dayton's punting was not so good, but Ben kicks high tight spirals for distance. He was a great "weapon". I remember thinking at the time that this was an NFL punter! I sure hope he sticks with a team, he is one heck of a punter!

I saw him play against us. He can certainly punt BUT... can he dance like the NDSU Punter?

Hope he makes it!xthumbsupx

Back in my era, Harvard's Pat McInally made the Bengals as a punter and had several solid years.
