JOHN GARCIA, SI ALL-AMERICAN, ON MIRCO
Like going to Florida for speed, Texas for tailbacks of Cali for quarterbacks, punters are becoming synonymous with Australian imports. Factor in the maturity of bringing in a player already in his 20s along with Micro's ability to utilize classic punts or rugby style kicks and it gives OSU some special teams options.
