Gardner-Webb’s clutch leg with big-game poise
Kurt Everett has already shown the kind of kicker profile coaches love: calm under pressure, with a proven late-game finish after drilling a 33-yard game-winner for Gardner-Webb in 2019. Recent team stat snapshots show Gardner-Webb’s kicking room has been efficient in 2026, with Everett listed among the Runnin’ Bulldogs’ kickers, which suggests he remains in the mix as a reliable specialist. The big selling point is trust—he’s the type who can settle a sideline, handle pressure kicks, and add stability to a roster that values field-position and points on demand.
