Kai Kluth brings big-leg upside, but he’s still a development piece for Hawaiʻi
Kluth is a **6-foot-4, 165-pound** placekicker at Hawaiʻi who arrived with a strong prep résumé: he handled all kicking duties at San Diego High, made **7-of-11 field goals**, and was recognized as the **Eastern League Kicker of the Year**. The upside is his frame, leg strength, and multi-sport athletic background, which evaluators described as a kicker with a “live leg” and strong kickoff power; the caution is that he **redshirted in 2023 and did not appear in a game in 2024**, so he’s still a projection rather than a proven college producer.[1][10]
