Tulsa kicker Michael Slaba: a big-legged, depth-chart battle-tested specialist
In the 2023 season, Michael Slaba handled Tulsa’s kickoff duties in 10 games, blasting 45 kickoffs for a 60.1-yard average with 10 touchbacks, and his profile still screams strong-legged specialist rather than full-time placekicker. He’s a redshirt junior from Rogers, Arkansas, listed at 5-foot-11 and 195 pounds, and Tulsa has also tagged him as a two-time academic all-conference selection. The biggest differentiator: he already has game reps and legitimate kickoff pop, but his recent usage has been limited, so he looks most valuable if your team wants a reliable, experienced special-teams piece with upside.
