Jeff Tedford named true freshman Vince D’Amato as field goal kicker after practice tonight. Giorgio Tavecchio will continue to handle kickoffs. More later…

How will this news be received in the Italian community?

My guess is each place kicking family will put out a vendetta on the other…or we’ll all just get along cuz it’s Cal Football!
It is an interesting choice consider D’Amato is a freshman. He has to be way better to pull that.

He must be the Matt Barkley of kicking. Oh God did I really just say that?

No not like Matt Barkley. He sounds more like Rey, Cush and Clay – all 3 who have won starting LB positions in the NFL…as rookies. The Bengals will have Keith Rivers and Rey out there together.

That is very funny. But, yeah! that really catch someone’s attention.. ha..ha… now. he is going to have no end to it.
D’Amato, Please makes all 6 PATs and a field goal in game. Because, I am betting on cal a 45-16 win.
Go Bears!

My high place inside source with whom I pray tells me he’s already one of the smartest kickers in college football.

Could the Italian combo save Alamar’s job? Looks like Alamar is using his head and keeping these young legs fresh. Hopefully, it pays off.
What was I thinking when I asked Seawright for his autograph! My 2 year old son will say to me in a few years, “I know the names: Tucker, Vereen, Jones, Galas, Holt, Manson, Kapp, Cheadle, Summer-Gavins, and Tedford, but who is this Seawright?

I was told by the angel Moroni when I was talking into my hat that D’amato is so smart that he knows the score of the game before it even starts. I bet the chosen one from $C can’t do that.
