Rush Through the Roster: #18 Justin Brockhaus-Kann

#18 - Justin Brockhaus-Kann - 6-2 212-pounds - RS Senior - Punter - Winter Springs, FL (Winter Springs HS)

2011 stats:  JBK played in all 12 games last season, punting the ball 62 times.  He averaged 36.3 yards per kick (down from 2010) including a long of 55 yards (30 inside the 20 yard line) and had 4 touchbacks.

Position on the depth chart:  JBK is listed as the number two punter coming out of the spring behind freshman Mattias Ciabatti.

2012 projection: JBK led one of the best punt return coverage units in the nation last year (the Bulls hardly ever allowed a big return against them and people usually called for a fair catch).  JBK's kicking average, however, dropped last season as he struggled to get off long kicks on a consistent basis,.  Ciabatti proved more effective this spring and won the job heading into the fall.  JBK will have to increase his average and battle Ciabatti (possibly a healthy Veron) if he wants to win the job back.
