The below quote about Pickering is a less than veiled shot at punter Caleb Lightbourn. He had been handling kickoffs until a flubbed onside kick against Ohio State. Now, it appears Lightbourn is out of both jobs, as he'd already been benched from the starting punter job.
Scott Frost says Barret Pickering will continue to handle kickoff duties going forward. Why?
