I never would have expected this guy to eventually be an NFL caliber kicker after playing here for a year.
John Parker Romo
- Thread starter Babe the Blue Ox
- Start date
Romo hits 3 of 3 field goals plus the game winning extra point.
Note to the Cardinals - kicking a late field goal when you are already up by 3 is the worst strategy in football.

He was here in 2018 then transferred to Va Tech. He mostly handled kickoffs for us.
The thing I remember most about him was the very large group of family and friends that attended those games. They all wore his jersey and went crazy every time he put one into the end zone.
They even went to the road game in Fayetteville. We got shut out that day so he only got to kick once.
2018. One season. Transferred to Va Tech. He took over place kicking towards the end of the season and was inconsistent. PM flipped back and forth with Walker. Him leaving started a several year unstable kicking situation that drove some of you crazy.
Thanks. Him taking over towards the end of the season was probably why I didn't have his name situated in my memory. I'm surprised that him sharing a last name with Tony Romo didn't help me to remember it, even for a short time as a starting kicker.
He missed two game winners iirc. I’d have to go look. You’d probably instantly remember the games, but not who missed the kick,
