Ole Miss’s record-setting, high-efficiency kicking weapon
Gary Wunderlich was one of Ole Miss’s most reliable specialists, finishing his career as the Rebels’ all-time leader in points, field goals made, and PATs made, while ranking as the program’s most accurate kicker among those with meaningful volume. In 2017, he hit 17 of 21 field goals and extended a streak of 17 straight makes, showing the calm, repeatable mechanics coaches want in pressure situations. His biggest differentiator is trust: he was used in clutch moments, handled kickoffs/punts when needed, and brought veteran steadiness rather than flash, which makes him a fit for teams that value consistency over raw leg strength.[2][1][4]
