ODU’s record-setting, high-leverage kicking weapon
Jarod Brown was a dependable, high-volume placekicker for Old Dominion, finishing with program records in extra points made and attempted, field goals made and attempted, and a 71% field-goal rate, which signals both trust and consistency under pressure[5]. He also showed special-teams versatility by converting an onside kick against North Carolina while nailing field goals from 37 and 40 yards in that game[2]. For a team, his profile says “steady, battle-tested, and useful in clutch situations,” though the available sources mainly reflect his ODU career rather than current 2026-level performance[1][5].
