Having run out of patience following three straight games without a Sun Devils made field goal, including Saturday's loss to Cincinnati, Arizona State coach Kenny Dillingham told reporters, 'We're going to have kicking tryouts on Monday, so bring it on.
."So, if you can kick and you're at Arizona State, email me. We're going to have kicking tryouts on Monday, so bring it on.""I'm dead serious. We're going to put it out on our social. We're going to have a kicking tryout on Monday," he said."We got to find somebody who can make a field goal. It makes it even harder late in games when it's clearly a kick scenario. That's when it gets really hard.
Dillingham acknowledged an open tryout won't necessarily lead to a change, in which case they'll stick with the status quo. "If somebody is , then you welcome to the team and we'll rock and roll from there," Dillingham said.to the roster, after which coach Lane Kiffin, said,"I don't know a whole lot about him. I think he was down at the frat house at a keg party or something where they got him from."
