Sean NuernbergerOldham County kicker Sean Nuernberger committed to Ohio State on Tuesday ? immediately after getting a scholarship offer from the Buckeyes at their kicking camp. He discussed his decision and his trip to Columbus with The Courier-Journal.

So you attended camp there today?

I got invited to come kick for the camp. They were looking for a kicker. So I came up there and earned my spot, I guess.

Did you get to meet with Urban Meyer?

I kicked for the first time yesterday, and they had like the top 10 guys come out after the morning and come kick in the afternoon at the indoor facility. We kicked there in front of Coach Meyer. I got to meet him that night and talk to him for a little bit. After that we came out and kicked again this morning, and I got invited back over. I talked to Kerry Coombs, the special teams coordinator, and talked to Coach Meyer in his office for quite a while, and it basically just ended with him telling me they wanted me to kick for them and were going to offer me a scholarship. So I accepted on the spot, so I committed.

At some kicking camps, they?ll kind of challenge you and put you at certain distances and blare music or yell at you while you?re kicking. Did they do that?

Yeah, yeah. When we kicked today they had music playing in the stadium, and I had Coach Coombs about a foot behind me screaming at the top of his lungs. That was pretty interesting, but I basically just tried to block all of it out and keep the pressure away and do the job. It ended up working out.

Did you kick a certain distance, or do you remember how many you made?

We charted. I had, I think, eight kicks, and I missed one of my kicks ? the third one, hooked it a little bit to the left. We had winds going to the left, too. So I pushed it a little bit to the left, and I made all the other ones. The longest field goal that we charted was 55 yards, and I hit that one right down the middle.

I know you punt, too. Are you going to be doing that as well, or just kicking?

The scholarship is to kick, but I punt. They just signed a punter this last year, but I?m definitely not going to give up punting and keep working at it and try to earn my spot. I?m sure I?ll be the backup punter starting out.
