"So, at practice, they were kicking and Jake was nailing them," Bowling Green spokesman Jason Knavel told Yahoo! Sports. "So when they got to the long one (53 yards out), Coach Jinks out of the blue told him, 'Knock this one down for a full scholarship.' It really was organic and out of the blue."
The redshirt junior delivered and earned his scholarship. His teammates surrounded him in celebration.
Just awesome.

Suder connected on nine of 12 field goal attempts last season, while going 35-for-38 on extra points. The former walk-on was on scholarship in 2016, but it was just for a year.
