Something I've thought about for some time but never actually seen is a school offering a scholarship to a football player with his sole purpose to be a kick blocker. I've always thought someone could use for example, a 6'6+ jumping machine that while being tremendously athletic, isn't a D1 basketball or football player in terms of skill. While these guys don't exactly grow on trees, it seems like there could be a spot for guys like this in football. Just simply a guy that can reach 11+ feet at the peak of his jump in pads. It seems like that could be a real weapon in defending field goals and XP's. Just a random thought and for fun. What do you guys think?
