Is that Zendejas kid kicking for ASU any relation to all those other pro Zendejas kickers

Other Zendejas':

Alan - Luis' brother - ASU late 1980s
Max - " " - U of A and NFL for a few years
Joaquin - " " - University of La Verne and played a few games with the Patriots
Tony - Luis' cousin - University of Nevada, played 11 years in NFL

I am sure there is inherit talent while kicking a ball, just like any skill set but this leads me to imagine that a lot of this also has to do with with training and attaining proper form if all these guys have some degree of success. After all, it's less demanding than a pitcher finding different ways to reach the strike zone, unlike the Arts you do not have to be original with a full composition of variables, or have a witty repertoire to achieve your objective being a ASFN poster... you simply learn to kick it through the uprights :raccoon:

He's been pretty good. ASU's punter is the nephew of Matt Turk, another long time punter.

His first game, he basically had the best punting game ever. Kid can boot the football.
