One of two specialists signing Wednesday is on the board with 3-star placekicker
Robert Gunn.
More on Gunn... Committed since: 6/14/21. Listed size: 6-2 165 Early enrollee Notable: Before suffering a torn ACL early in his senior year, Gunn was ranked among the top-two kickers in the 2022 class by multiple outlets. Quotable: “Robert is without a doubt a Power 5 FBS scholarship-ready kicker/punter and the best 2022 kicker in the country. I believe he will be kicking in the NFL one day…He now kicks field goals off the ground and has a MASSIVE kickoff leg: 75 to 80+ yard kicks with 4.1-4.3 second hang times routinely and even cranked out a 76 Yard / 4.5 second kickoff all-time camp record at our March 2021 Orlando event. Not including his massive 4.51 hang kick, he averaged 4.21 seconds of hang time on all of his Day 2 competition kickoffs, with no balls below 4.16 seconds. He is extremely accurate and poised under pressure on all 3: FG/KO/P. He’s humble, reliable, is extremely coachable and dedicated to his craft, and is someone that would make an immediate positive impact with team culture.” - Kicking World (source) Depth chart fit: Three-year starter and four-year contributor BT Potter will be returning as Clemson’s starting placekicker and kickoff specialist. Clemson also had walk-ons in Jonathan Weitz and Quinn Castner on the 2021 roster, so Gunn will have time to rehab.
