Zach Hoban brings proven leg power and a strong pre-college pedigree to Rice
In his Rice profile, Zach Hoban is listed as a kicker with a proven leg—he missed the first three games in 2019 while rehabbing a preseason injury, then handled kickoff duties for the final nine games, averaging 59.9 yards on 34 kickoffs with 14 touchbacks. He arrived with real recruiting juice too: Kohl’s Kicking ranked him among the nation’s top specialists, and his prep résumé included a state-record 52-yard field goal plus a history of accuracy and durability. If your team wants a specialist with big-leg upside, he’s worth a look.
