Western Kentucky’s Michael Buck: promising leg, no college snaps yet
Michael Buck is a redshirt sophomore kicker at Western Kentucky who arrives with real HS upside: at Lake Norman in the 2023 season, he averaged 53.8 yards on kickoffs, hit 88 of 89 PATs across his last three prep years, and connected on 21 field goals with a long of 50 yards. WKU lists him as 5-foot-10 and 177 pounds, and he has not yet appeared in a college game, so the read is projection over production right now. If you want a leg with touchback juice and developmental runway, he’s intriguing.
