10 mph isn't a big gust, but it is significant when you factor in the length of the kick. I have never kicked in my life, but I do know that a 47 yarder isn't considere a gimmee even by nfl standards, now kick into a 10 mph win and the odds go down.
I found out something today that may have had something to do with his leaving, and that is nebraska got a kicker from vanderbilt who transfered him. I wonder how much that had to do with him leaving, laong with a big time kicker with a big time leg from texas who was just offered by miami in this years class coming in.
oh well.
