Congrats indeed!

Not trying to be an a-hole or anything, but how many rookie kickers are there in the NFL this year?

Not very many, and that's because there are few who are as good/consistent as Carpenter. That guy won more games for the griz than any player they have ever had. I'm almost certain he holds the record for most points by any griz player over his career.

Carpenter holds the career record for all FCS kickers - not sure about all players, though. I still can't believe he pulled that kick agains Wofford...

It was quite ironic how that game turned out. I felt kinda bad for the guy.

The dude has a leg...
I saw a replay of that missed Wofford kick - my guess is he kicked that ball about 70 yards xlolx
