Bucs kicker Barth out for season

Connor Barth, a UNC alum and NC (Wilmington) native tore his achilles at a charity basketball game recently and will miss the entire season. The Bucs have signed vet Lawrence Tynes in his place.

This may impact the Bucs season as Barth was accurate and had very good range. Helps the Panthers indirectly but sad to see a local kid miss an entire season due to injury, even if he was a Tarheel. All the best for his recovery.

Lol the rage that would ensue on here if one of our own players got IRed while not engaging in football or even football related activities

 

Yea, I can't imagine what would happen if a player like Steve Smith or someone hurt himself at say... a flag football game or some other nonsense? ;)

 

In all honestly though, it's worse than getting hurt at camp or at a game i'd say.

That really sucks!!!!!!! Talk about a good guy.

When we were organizing a charity event for a free mental health clinic in Wilmington, Connor approached us about helping. We auctioned off a " date with Connor Barth". He is really a great person.

Sucks when bad things happen to good people. Wishing him a speedy recovery!!!!!!!

    • Tetairoa McMillan.   The last 28 1st overall picks were either a QB, DE, or OT. Seeing as I don't think we'd take an OT in the 1st and give up on Ickey as an LT yet and there doesn't seem to be a clear overall #1 type of QB or DE pick this year, it very well could be a non conventional #1 overall this year, at least in regards from the last almost 3 decades of drafts. If we didn't have Horn, I'd be more open to Hunter as a CB at #1, but we have him so another CB wouldn't be how I'd use a #1 pick.  And as much as I love Legette, if we have SB contending aspirations, I don't think Legette is a #1 on a team like that, but he damn sure is an elite #2 on a team like that.  He's more of the Smith/Higgins/Waddle to Brown/Chase/Hill (in terms of role/impact, not style of play of course). T-Mac is going to be the top ranked WR on every team's board in the end.  He is going to be a true outside #1 WR who is viewed as a consensus Top 5 WR in the game by his second contract in the same way guys like Jefferson and Chase have done.  His height combined with his speed, athleticism, and hands are near impossible to find all in one player, there is a reason his generally used comp is Mike Evans (although as he's not as thick, I personally see him more as an AJ Green). Yes, as an Arizona alum I've admitted to having bias towards the player to begin with.  But he's also someone very widely being put into the Top 5 in mock drafts lately and most of them have him as the first non QB offensive player being taken, so it's not really THAT much of a homer pick on my part anyways. If a QB or DE truly separate themselves as being a can't miss prospect come draft day, I'm open to that discussion, but until then, or if it doesn't happen, T-Mac is my pick 100 times out of 100.
