Wing Takes Flight

If there were ever a thing such as a superstar punter, LSU freshman Brad Wing would be it. Unlike most punters and/or kickers Wing relishes in the spotlight. His contributions to the game are both important and sometimes glamorous. According to his team mates it is Wing's "swagger" that sets him apart from others. That and the fact that Wing has been able to pin his opponents inside the 20 yard line 19 times in 37 punts. Also, he has been good at keeping opponents from returning his punts, they are averaging less than a yard per return. With Wing's help the Tigers have flourished this year. I am not sure if a punter has ever had a more important role in helping his team reach the top. Wing has been an integral part of this LSU team and it is a pleasure to watch this fledgling take flight.
