Looks like A&I has received a great young kicker. Seen Jeremy Brown use his leg in several high school games this past year. Not only does he have a powerful and accurate field goal leg, but he also is a defensive weapon as a punter by placing the other team in a hole by kicking the ball out inside the 20 yard line. GO HOGS!!!

I agree with you about Brown Vra. I am surprised that Texas and some of the other big schools didnt' try to get him. What a steal for the Hogs but we like that.

Coach Cundiff is a pretty good recruiting tool. he is a players coach especially for the guys who like intimidating coaches. he was defense coordinator when i was there.i didnt play for him but he was my weight training instructor. great guy. Not to mention A&I has a long tradition of winning and sending players to the NFL. the drawback of couse is the absense of night life in Kingsville. but then again, maybe that's a plus.
