It’s been an eventful month for Jace Feely, the son of former NFL kicker Jay Feely and a transfer from Arizona State who is trying to stake his claim to the starting job this spring for the Buffaloes.
Feely’s father scored 1,451 points in a 14-year NFL career that included stops with Atlanta, Arizona, Miami, Chicago and New York . The younger Feely was well on his way to following in his father’s footsteps as a prep star in Arizona, earning first team All-State honors from the Arizona Republic as a punter before arriving at Arizona State.
Yet in the aftermath of the firing of former ASU coach Herman Edwards, Feely entered the transfer portal. He said he knew first-year CU coach Deion Sanders from when Sanders was working at the NFL Network along with Feely’s father. Feely said Sanders tried to get him to play for his high school team in Texas, and while that never happened, the pair have finally gotten together in Boulder.
Feely’s competition for the job will come primarily from Alejandro Mata, who kicked for Sanders last season at Jackson State. Feely got a small taste of kicking at Folsom Field during warm-ups last fall when ASU visited, and while Mata has more on-field collegiate experience, Feely is hoping his kicking lineage helps make the difference in the competition for the job.
