Huber penned an article for the Player's Tribune. This is Bengals related rather than UC but Huber is the elder statesmen of active UC ALumni in the NFL so I thought I'd include it.

I'd maybe give that title to Jason Kelce but agreed anyway lol

Hey when he punts that looks like it was punted by a rocket. Wait . It was

My wife and I met Kevin Huber’s parents at a reception for Bearcat fans before the 2009 Orange Bowl in Miami. Wonderful people. I will always have a soft spot for him and wish him well just based on that on interaction with his parents.

Kevin's the subject of an interview with GoBearcats this morning.

Huber and Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Marquise Copeland will be the 19th and 20th Bearcats to play in the Super Bowl, and one will become the 14th former UC football player to earn a Super Bowl ring. Sunday will also mark the 25th Super Bowl featuring a Bearcat.

He got two inside the 20. Chrisman outdid him on yardage by quite a bit on the same number of punts but got nothing inside the 20.

Huber has always been about accuracy with the ability to put the ball close to the end zone without going in. I don't put much credence in just being able to kick in far, but I could be wrong.

[bearcatbret]

Cpaw, I was thinking the same thing. Distance does matter unless you are trying to trap inside the 20. Kicking from your own 20 is far from kicking from the visitor's 45.

[Lobot]

Spot on. Chrisman has been cut and Huber will play another season

[fmirzamd]

Any idea how many of the draft picks made their teams?

[swilsonsp4]

The Seahawks cut Joel Dublanko. The Colts dropped Curtis Brooks.

The Saints cut former UC LB, Eric Wilson.

I can't find mention of any others.

I’ve updated all the threads with todays cuts in Where Are they now.

Here's the explanation of Huber making the team ($)
