How’d he get to The Blue™?

By way of the transfer portal and UCF.

Nickname

“Boomer”

I realize it’s just his last name but, c’monnnnnn, it’s a pretty good last name.

Look-alike

Ben Flajnik (he was on the seventh season of The Bachelorette).

It’s probably how they part their hair but bleach Flajnik’s hair and he’s a spitting image of Boomer.

Career Highlights

I don’t want to get TOO specific (because I’ll just get annoyed) but lets just say he’s won a few games on his kicks. He was Academic All-Mountain West last year and he’s Athlon Sports Preseason All-Pac-12 First team and Phil Steel Preseason All-Pac-12 fourth team. I think Phil Steele is wrong.

2026 Prospectus

Barring anything dumb happening (and this is college football, there is always something dumb happening) he is the Kicker this year. Which is… fairly straightforward. Make your kicks, you’re the guy. Lets cheer on some more of that game-winning magic for this upcoming year.

Is he on Twitter?

NIL Exchange:

I didn’t see any links.

Completely made up fact

Ever the entrepreneur, Boomer invests in many things. One is his passion for meal replacement bars and granola bars. In fact he’s got an idea in the hopper that’s just ONE ingredient: air. Just needs to figure out how to patent it.
