Evaluation:

Louisville is getting a kicker with a big leg and a strong career from an accuracy standpoint. Travelstead hit 23-25 field goals in his first two years as the kicker for his high school. For whatever reason, that number dipped to 3-8 this year. He consistently puts his kickoffs into the end zone and the added distance in college shouldn’t be a problem as he has hit the uprights or put the ball through the uprights multiple times.

Summary:

When Brock initially committed to Louisville he was ranked as the best kicker in the country. Rankings change as the year goes on but it’s good that UofL got a guy who performed well at kicking camps and was first team all-state as a junior. He also has experience as a punter which UofL needs also.
