It's not often we see a senior player in a major program not have his scholarship renewed. It's equally infrequent to have such a player transfer and keep playing at another university. Former LSU placekicker Trent Domingue has done just tat, signing a financial aid agreement to join the Texas football program as a graduate transfer, Longhorns head coach Charlie Strong confirmed Sunday.

"We're obviously thrilled that Trent decided to join our program," Strong said in a statement. "What a great addition in a critical position of need for us. Trent's an experienced and proven kicker who has had a great deal of success at the highest level and competed in pressure situations. He'll be a strong leader on our special teams, and we look forward to getting him on campus."

According to a release from UT, Domingue, who received his degree in general business from LSU in spring 2016 and is a member of the 2016 Groza Award preseason watch list, took over as LSU's primary placekicker with two games remaining in the 2014 season. He was 2-of-4 that year, prior to going 13-of-17 in 2015, including a streak of 10 consecutive made attempts. He also put together a streak of 42 consecutive made extra points, which was the eighth longest in LSU history, prior to one being blocked. He finished the season 49-of-50 in PATs and has made 55-of-56 in his career.

A former walk-on with the Tigers, Domingue handled a majority of the kickoff duties in 2014 with 51 attempts for an average of 62.2 yards per kick and 28 touchbacks. Once becoming the placekicker for 2015, he split those duties and kicked off 32 times for an average of 58.4 ypk with seven touchbacks.
