Kentucky Recruits Kicker Named Chance Poore

The University of Kentucky just signed the very best high school kicker in South Carolina.

They also stumbled upon one of the best names for a placekicker you'll ever find.

Dude's actually named Chance Poore.

Yes, you read that correctly.

Poore won't be suiting up for the Wildcats until 2018.

However, he's already joined the pantheon of wonderfully ironic kicker names.

Of course, the true irony is how well this dude kicks despite the albatross of his given name.

He's pretty excited about the early offer, hoping to overcome his name and succeed in the SEC.

Sadly, the kid will miss a kick at some point in his college career and will then be mocked mercilessly on the road in the SEC.

However, it could be worse.

Remember that kicker from Pitt?

Now, that is unfortunate.
