Crazy couple of months for Inside 20 Punting.
In December, Jasper Scaife (@jasper_scaife) was offered a full scholarship to punt and study at the University of Notre Dame and a couple of weeks later Boston Everitt (@BostonEveritt10) was offered the same to the University of Iowa.
I finished my college career in 2022 and because I didn’t have the career I wanted to on the field, I knew getting into the NFL was going to be a hard task.
Despite not having the greatest career on the field, one thing I knew I had excelled in throughout my time in the US was the ability to learn a lot of skills in regards to player/coach relationships, communication, mental performance plus lots about the art of punting.
Personally, I could never piece all the knowledge I had acquired together and successfully channel it towards producing consistent excellence on the field.
What I did piece together though, was the ability to communicate what I had learnt and figured I was well positioned to help younger guys who were once in my position to be ready to perform better than I was—so I embarked on a career in coaching and mentoring.
It’s been a tough journey for nearly two years. Sometimes I have paid out of my own pocket to head to the US to train with NFL guys to learn more plus build connections and contacts within college football and the NFL.
I knew trying to upskill myself would not just help me in the long run, but the people I was helping out.
The scholarships coming our way at the end of 2025 and beginning of 2026 were years of work coming to fruition and weren’t just a small reward for me, but most importantly a massive reward for two guys who put their faith in me when they had no reason to.
Now as graduates of Inside 20, they have scholarships to two of the biggest schools in America.
We are all very happy with how it’s all turned out to this point but we are well aware the job isn’t done yet.
These guys will continue to work and get better, plus we have more guys ready to commit to schools this year—there are lots of exciting things happening 🗣️

Forty hours without sleep and a 14-hour car ride with strangers, all to watch his son play football.
When an FAA ground stop stranded Australian football legend Peter Everitt in Denver, he found an unconventional way to make it to Iowa City to watch his son punt for Iowa.

On my crazy 36 hour visit to Iowa City, made it as far as Denver before Flights were grounded. No other options available other than to hire a car and drive 11 hours to Iowa City overnight, with 2 random strangers from my flight 🤣
22 hour flight from Australia followed up with an 11 hour drive now, hopefully a few hours sleep around 7am then at Tailgate by 1pm 🤣
Go hawkeyes! …. Only 8 hours to go.

love ♥️
Not at all how I envisioned my time in LA. The energy and excitement I felt going into this game was incredible. I couldn’t wait to step on that field and show what I could do.
No choice other than to attack rehab and come back stronger and more prepared than ever. 💙💛
I will continue to trust and follow His plan.
Thank you to everyone that’s reached out. 🫡

I do a lot of work with my guys building a process in their punting to allow them to become consistent.
Their coaches in college do a great job of getting them even better.
You’ve still gotta find time to be grateful for the opportunity and enjoy the moment 🖤💛

he’s summed it up pretty well.
there’s always a time to go into detail with things but a lot of the time you should just keep it simple.
1. Enjoy the moment
2. Catch it and kick it to a target
Once again the #Hawkeyes have a punter with the ability to pin opponents deep in their own territory.
Boston Everitt talked today about how his punting coach in Australia, Mackenzie Morgan, and Hawkeye legend Tory Taylor have helped him out.
