Kansas kicker Dane Efird brings big-leg upside and proven high-school accuracy
Efird enters Kansas as a redshirt freshman kicker with prototype size at 6-3 and 200 pounds, plus a résumé that includes All-State honors, a No. 79 national kicker ranking from Kohl’s, and a strong high-school track record on both field goals and kickoffs[1][2]. What makes him interesting is the combination of leg strength and composure: he has hit from long range, handled pressure as a four-year varsity kicker, and already looks like a developmental fit if Kansas wants a specialist with upside and kickoff value.[1][2][8]
