Why?

Good Question, what would a guy named TG4 know about defensive backs?

What are you talking about? Seriously.

Or do we RS both and go with our RS Soph who was 13th in the nation in 2015.

Guess we are now known as Long Snapper U.

Honestly...

Who really cares...You can build a serviceable long snapper in the offseason. Much bigger concerns on this squad.

Bigger? Of course.

Many? No. Not really.

I know that. That is why I was asking for his opinion. Ned doesn't know how to read.

See if any of them can play tight end.

Excited about this!

Long snappers are important. Are they QBs? No. But Special Teams can make or break a season. Little things win games and not everyone can just learn that job. To be accurate then get immediately popped in the mouth is not as easy as it sounds.

Snappers aren't getting popped in the mouth like they used to...Rule changes. Every spot is important but honestly you really shouldn't have 2-3 schollies tied up on guys who are exclusive long snappers.

You are going to need to cover kickoffs or Kickoff Returns and hopefully actually have a position on offense or defense.
