Michael Cosentino brings steady short-range reliability to Illinois State’s kicking game
In the 2025 season, Illinois State kicker Michael Cosentino was 3-for-4 on field goals and 7-for-8 on extra points, and he later delivered in big moments with makes from 29, 30, and 35 yards in the 2025 FCS playoff semifinals. His edge is composure: he looks like a specialist the staff trusts for short- and intermediate-range duty, especially under pressure. At 5-foot-7 and 160 pounds, he’s not about flash; he’s about clean execution and opportunity-ready consistency, which makes him a useful fit for a team needing a dependable, situational kicker.
