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 secured 4 early FBS scholarship offers from FAU, Army, Navy, and Air Force before landing a Texas offer on 6/06/21 followed by a Clemson offer on 6/12/21 after an impactful Elite Retreat weekend with the Tigers. On Monday, June 14th, Robert officially committed to be a Clemson Tiger!

Robert has received extensive interest from various top-tier programs across the country. 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.

June 2021 Update
Robert had a phenomenal workout with us on June 2 in Austin, TX in preparation for unofficial visits and camps at Texas and Clemson. He has later visits scheduled to Georgia, Florida, and Florida State with many new schools coming into the mix late. He hit several kickoffs over 80 yards with 4.2-4.4 second hang times and drilled multiple field goals over 60 yards at his first two college camps completed and during our training the week prior. The kid is the real deal and we’re proud to be his coach!

2020 National Showcase Recap (12/6/20)
Robert was the Overall Winner of Day 2 Elimination competitions for both Kickoffs and Punts, besting close to 90 specialists. Below are his 9 kickoffs during the 7 round competition (no throw-outs: 1 miss-hit) where participants take a kickoff and then wait several minutes before their next one, upwards of 20 minutes in earlier rounds – not allowing for students to get in a rhythm, better simulating a real game. His best ball was 83 yards / 4.13 hang, and the winning kick in the final round ‘best ball’ was 77 yards / 4.03 hang. He also hit a 78 yard / 4.30 hang. Simply insane numbers. His ‘best ball’ Punt was 53/4.69 with a winning punt of 45/4.44. He’s proven on several occasions that he’s the real deal and the best all-around kicker in the Class of 2022 of any kicking camp nationwide. Offer Robert NOW.

As an incoming Junior he made a clean sweep again winning all 3 events (FG/KO/P) at our July 25, 2020 Atlanta, GA camp. In his first game this 2020 season on 9/11/20, he blasted several kickoffs deep into the end zone, with one even going through the uprights (no wind)! As a sophomore last season he had had a dominating performance at our 2019 National Showcase among 60 of the country’s best kickers. He was the Day 1 Overall Punt and Field Goal (perfect consecutive kicks from 30L, 30R, 35L, 35R, 40M, 45M, 50M, 55M) Winner. Robert has a big leg and has proven to be one of the best recruits in the country of any HS class and I boldly consider him the best Class of 2022 kicker in the country.

At our 2019 Showcase, he connected on several 65-70 yard kickoffs with over 3.9 seconds of hang. His sophomore season was his first year on varsity and he opened up the first game with a couple of big touchbacks, one over 10 yards deep. He made our List his freshman year and is one of only three eighth graders who were invited to our 2018 National Showcase. Robert hits solid field goals with excellent lift/height for his age and gets great distance and hang time on kickoffs. He can also punt well.

Robert won our April 2019 Ft Lauderdale FG competition hitting seven field goals including a 53 yarder. Robert made a clean sweep for the younger group at our March 2019 Orlando camp winning FG, KO, P… all 3 events (Triple Threat Champion). He was selected 3 years in a row to the USA Football national team. Robert is very enthusiastic about kicking and is passionate about becoming the best kicker he can be. He is undoubtedly our top Class of 2022 kicker in the country. He possesses a great attitude, tons of hustle, follow-through, and excitement/passion for kicking and helping his team win. He’s Power 5 FBS Scholarship ready to go.
