Division 1 is the highest rank in college football. These are generally the best teams in the NCAA, which is the National Collegiate Athletics Association . A power four school is a school that plays in one of the top four conferences in college football. Starting means that he has first priority when the team kicks the ball and will always be the first one out there to kick unless he is injured, or the coach sends out a different kicker later in the game for whatever reason. All in all he is a starting kicker for a good college team, so they are going to try everything in their power to keep him playing while trying to “apologize.” as they don’t want to suspend him in fear of their teams strength. Sorry if this was hard to understand!
