New punter Boston Everitt
- Thread starter squeezebox_1
- Start date
if he added this punter after signing the other guy, ferentz must be very serious about winning a NT
Is there a Outback Steakhouse in Iowa City? If so, there's our NIL funding source.
Also, I hope he goes on with Jim Rome and he calls him Chris too, so he can punt Jim Rome right in the sack!
Boston plans to arrive in Iowa City later this week; he has 4 years of eligibility remaining and a redshirt year is available.

Australian punter Boston Everitt commits to Iowa
Australian punter Boston Everitt, a 19-year old with four years of eligibility remaining, is headed to the University of Iowa.
We just signed another Australian punter................
Tim Lester does not plan on punting, Evil one!!!
Call me old-school, but it's refreshing to see a recruit mention academics in his commitment announcement.
Tell the kid to wait to come to IC until February.
He arrives in this weather and he may not unpack his suitcase and return home!

Nothing like an Aussie punter named Boston to join the Hawkeyes in Iowa City. 
if he can boom it 65 yards repeatably worth a full scholly
Guessing he has talked to Tory Taylor
I'm surprised we signed two punters with Boston getting a scholarship right out of the gate. Is Philpott also on scholarship?
Both look like good pick-ups!
I thought Philpott was a PWO? I could be mistaken.
His old man was a big Australian rules football star, Peter “Spida” Everitt. It looks like he was the equivalent of ROTY and an All-Pro three different seasons, and eventually inducted into his team’s Hall of Fame. Here is an interview with him containing some highlights, as I will not post his 1 hour and 43 minute career highlight film on YouTube. Is Dad seemed a real eccentric with quite the hairstyles back in the day…
damn I was hoping we weren't even rostering one punter this year, let alone two, due to the offensive forecast
I assume Aussie Rules football is Rugby? Rugby is a pretty intense sport with some large dudes playing in it. It's fun to watch -I don't think they have a forward pass like American football but still a lot of tackling (without a lot of pads or helmets).
Two different codes. I couldn't tell you the differences though.
I remember seeing as a kid that ESPN would broadcast live AFL matches at like 2:30 a.m. /csb
No, two totally different sports with very different rules. Though both are big in Australia.
Totally different deal. Australian Rules Football was on ESPN all the time in the early stages of ESPN. I don't recall the team names now, but my friends and I watched it a LOT, and then just picked a team to follow and cheer for. It was damn good entertainment.
The officials in their little white uniforms and the way they called scores was pretty funny too. Not arms up straight like a TD, but out in front like firing 2 pistols. It was weird but cool.
