season average (46.0) and highest career average (42.7). He earned first-team All-America honors in 1980 and 1981 and was a team captain as a senior." At the end of his college football career, Stark was probably the best college punter since Ray Guy played for Southern Mississippi in the early '70s. "The spring of his senior year, he cemented his spot as one of FSU's all-time greats, winning All-America honors as a decathlete as well. In 1986, he was inducted into the Florida State Hall of Fame, in Football and Track/Field." He seriously considered participation in the 1984 Olympics. Stark kicked left-footed. To returners, that means the ball is spinning the "wrong" way and is a little harder to handle; FSU opponents had fumbled about one of Stark's punts per game in his three-year career. And there was one more thing that scouts drooled over: Stark had never had a punt blocked. In his 16 seasons in the NFL, he only had 7 blocked punts. Retirement After retiring from the NFL, Stark and his family made their home in Maui, where he works in real estate.
