Dave Stannard gives JMU a proven, record-level kicking option
Stannard stands out as a historically productive James Madison kicker, with his 85 points as a season kicking mark and 49 conversion kicks ranking among the program’s best, plus 12 field goals in a season that placed eighth in school history.[1] That profile signals reliability in the hidden-yardage game: a specialist who has already shown he can convert extra points and add scoring volume, which is exactly what you want if your team values consistency over flash.[1] Current, up-to-date 2026 performance data was not available in the provided sources, so this evaluation is anchored in his documented JMU production and stat-leader profile.[1]
