I don't think you understand just how many squirrel GIFs there are out there. JarHeadJim has been holding back, you may have just poked the bear.

Kohl's Comments​

His best kickoff traveled 73 yards with 3.66 seconds of hang time, showing excellent leg strength and clean ball striking. Barker has the tools to continue progressing at a high level and should be a prospect to keep an eye on. Barker participated in the 2025 Kohl's Future Stars Camp. He made 5 field goals during the event and earned a kickoff score of 100.00. His standout ball traveled 66 yards with a hang time of 3.65 seconds, showcasing his ability to generate excellent power and hang time. Barker has demonstrated solid potential and with continued focus on development, he can further elevate his kicking game. Barker competed at his first ranking event, the 2024 Kohl's Eastern Winter Showcase. He had an impressive showing at camp and showed excellent power and refinement throughout the event. His overall kickoff score was 102.05 which included a big ball of 64 yards with 3.96 seconds of hang time. He scored 9 points in the field goal charting and smashed some kicks during the drill work portion of camp. His long levers and powerful hips allow him to create excellent lift on his kicks.

I think it's like a series of fireworks we set off. It's fun and celebratory. What more information are you looking to get after they commit, anyway?

 

[JarHeadJim]

Are other people besides me tired of opening recruiting threads and finding nothing to read? This is childish can you guys just stop this ?

 

[JarHeadJim]

You'd rather read "Great pickup!" 30 times?

I like the gifs but some get stale after awhile. Outside of some of the original classics (Miyagi, Denzel Boom, JarHead's squirrelnuts, etc...), I suggest we do a yearly burning of the commitment gifs like we do with the avatars.

Some get stale, but anything with Chapelle, and that creepy Jack black one, always get a like from me.

A renewed emphasis on identifying elite special teams talent is great to see.
