Rubio Long Snapping Makes History!

February 6, 2013 By Rubio

As you already know, today is National Signing Day for all high school athletes. It is a monster for coaches, sports writers, athletes and myself (check your Twitter and Facebook feeds).

Bottom line, today is a big day….and I want you to fully grasp how big of a day this is for Rubio Long Snapping and Long Snappers in general.

I received a picture and text from Rubio Long Snapper Carson Tinker of Bama….

He had it sent to him by the top ranked Long Snapper in the country, Cole Mazza. The picture is showing Mazza signing his letter of intent to play at Alabama for the next four years.

Big deal, right?

It gets bigger. Tinker’s text to me read “You did that man…I’m proud of Rubio…You make snappers proud….This picture is unprecedented to long snappers and you know that….congrats man. It is historical and you made that happen. Saban has offered a snapper”

Tinker is right. This is historical. Not just for Rubio Long Snapping, but for Long Snappers everywhere. Alabama has never offered a Long Snapper out of high school. Head Coach Nick Saban has never offered a Long Snapper a scholarship out of high school.

Who is next to make history with Rubio Long Snapping?

Rubio Long Snapper Alex Arnaud has committed to the Arizona Wildcats!

February 6, 2013 By Rubio

Rubio Long Snapper Alex Arnaud (AZ, ’13) has committed to the University of Arizona as a preferred walk-on!

Arnaud had several smaller school offers but decided he wanted to attend his dream school and he will be a Wildcat in the fall.

Arnaud is a very strong Long Snapper that is coachable. Very solid pick up for Arizona.

Rubio Long Snapper John Wirtel has committed to Kansas!

February 5, 2013 By Rubio

5 Star Rubio Long Snapper John Wirtel (IL, ’13) has committed the University of Kansas as a preferred walk-on!

John came off a terrific Vegas Event where he was snapping with tremendous confidence and excellent form. He is one of the smoothest Long Snappers in his class and this opportunity for him is very well deserved.

Per the Rubio Long Snapping website, “Wirtel is now ready for the next level. He has great length and a solid frame that could easily put on 30 lbs. He listens well and is very coachable. Snaps a nice, smooth ball that is on target. Speed is at the D1 level when he snaps the ball hard, which is pretty much every single time now (and I love it). He moves well on his feet and his going to be a very accurate/consistent Long Snapper at the next level. Not flashy, but he doesn’t need to be as a Long Snapper. Excellent work ethic.”

He will be joining Rubio Long Snapper Justin Carnes at Kansas and looks to fill in his shoes after this season.

So, You Didn’t Make The TOP 12…now what?

February 5, 2013 By Rubio

For the past 2 weeks, you have been watching the TOP 12 Long Snappers get chosen one by one. Nightly, you stared at your Twitter feed or Facebook at approximately 5 pm pst waiting for the inevitable clue to be dropped. Each day, one person was ecstatic while countless others felt the opposite emotions. Last night, the final TOP 12er was chosen and a balloon was popped for many 2014, 2015 and even some 2016 Long Snappers. Now what?

Couple ways to look at it….

You can be upset with me for not selecting you. You can be upset with yourself for not performing when it counted. You can even find a way to blame others, but, it is ultimately on you. The only thing you can control is how hard and smart you work. Everyone in Vegas is competing for the same spots. Don’t let anybody outwork you and you will see different results.

You need to use this as motivation to make sure you perform better. This is all up to you. The choice is yours.

If you are a Long Snapper that strives to be the best, you want to be at that TOP 12 camp this summer. Any single athlete that has been there (scholarship Long Snappers, All-Americans, NFL players) will tell you it is, by far, the best camp they have ever been to in their life. What you need to do is get back on the horse. Work smarter and harder. Your opportunity is waiting for you in May at the Spring Event in Las Vegas.

At the Spring Event, I choose the EVENT ELITE. The EVENT ELITE is the best of the best from Vegas in May. They join the TOP 12 to form the TOP 12 and EVENT ELITE Camp on June 21-23, 2013 in Los Angeles. There is no set number for the EVENT ELITE. I could choose one Long Snapper or I can choose 20. It all depends on the talent. I don’t choose just to choose. It would make me look ignorant in the end. If I say you belong at that camp, you are one of the best in the world. This is a true invite only camp. I do NOT just hand out invites to get people to come to it. That would give me no credibility. I choose the best because they are the best. They will represent the TOP 12, EVENT ELITE and Rubio Long Snapping the best in the future.

Are you one of them? Time to decide. Prove to me, and the rest of the world, that you belong.

Or don’t.

THE CHOICE IS YOURS…..

The 12th TOP 12er is Liam McCullough!

February 4, 2013 By Rubio

The 12th, and final, Long Snapper to be named to the exclusive TOP 12 is Liam McCullough (OH, ’15)!

Liam is the only Long Snapper from the class of 2015 that was chosen for this elite group and it is VERY well deserved. Liam came out to the 11th Annual National Event in Las Vegas and was beyond dominant from start to finish. He averaged sub .7 for a 15 yard snap and I didn’t see a bad ball all weekend. He has increased his size and is snapping with a ton of confidence.

Once again, congratulations to the final member of the TOP 12 – Liam McCullough!

2015 Long Snappers may now celebrate Rankuary!

February 4, 2013 By Rubio

The rankings are completed for the class of 2015 Long Snappers post the 11th Annual National Kicking and Snapping Event in Las Vegas. This was a very difficult class for me to rank due to their talent level. I have never had a sophomore class that was this advanced. The next year of camps is going to amazing to watch this group continue to advance. May will be very intense for this class. They will no longer be the babies, they will be ready to truly run with the big dogs.

KEY POINTS:

My rankings are NOT done just from the Target
My rankings are NOT done from some mathematical formula.
My rankings ARE done by me and only me.
My rankings are based off of this blog I wrote about what makes a Long Snapper great.

A Long Snapper has the ability to adjust their ranking anytime I see them LIVE, not on video. For the rankings for the class of 2015, please go HERE

Rubio Long Snapping January in Review

February 3, 2013 By Rubio

To say January was a “busy” month for Rubio Long Snapping would be the understatement of the Long Snapping world! The month was filled with player commitments, current college player success stories, alumni in the NFL Playoffs and The National Event in Las Vegas!

In just the month of January, Rubio Long Snapping had over 10 players commit to Universities. Some of those players include: Jerred Sonneborn (Washington State), Zach Smith (USC), AJ Hantak (Eastern Illinois) amongst many others.

Many Rubio Long Snappers continue to excel beyond high school and into their respected colleges; here are a few players that just recently accomplished great things at their schools:

Joe St. Germain – Recently earned a Full Scholarship at Virginia Tech University after a flawless Redshirt Freshman season.
Jeff Palmer – Set a record at the University of Oregon for playing in 52 games straight.

Off the field stories are always a popular topic for Rubio Long Snappers and January was no different click here to take a look at a great story from Tyler Schmidt, click here.

The National Event in Las Vegas was a huge success with Cole Mazza taking the title. Click Here for a recap of the event.

Finally to cap it all off Rubio Long Snapping Alums competed at the highest level of the sport and on one of the biggest stages the NFL Playoffs. Aaron Brewer (Broncos), Jonathon Weeks (Texans) and Nick Sundberg (Redskins) were all featured in the playoffs this year. Here is more about the three…Click Here.

Rubio Long Snapper Jerred Sonneborn commits to Washington St.

February 3, 2013 By Rubio

Rubio Long Snapper Jerred Sonneborn (WA, ’13) has committed to Washington State University as a preferred walk-on!

Sonneborn, who had full offers from smaller schools, has always dreamed of being a Coug and couldn’t pass up this opportunity when special teams Coach Russell extended the offer his way.

Jerred has come a long way since first starting with Rubio Long Snapping. He was originally close to 300 lbs and all lineman that could somewhat snap. Now, he is 250 lbs and a very solid Long Snapper that can also play line.

Sonneborn will be joining fellow Rubio Long Snappers, Alex Den Bleyker and Ryan Saparto at WSU.

Once again, congratulations to Rubio Long Snapper Jerred Sonneborn on his commitment to WSU.

The 11th TOP 12er is Zach Wade!

February 1, 2013 By Rubio

The 11th member of the exclusive TOP 12 is Zach Wade (GA, ’14)!

Zach had another strong showing at a Rubio Long Snapping camp. In Vegas, he was smooth, on target and snapping the ball extremely quick. He has very good form and he snaps the ball hard every snap. Handles pressure well and snaps with confidence.

Once again, congratulations to the 11th TOP 12er – Zach Wade.

The Final Snap of the 11th Annual Event

February 1, 2013 By Rubio

Every year, Rubio Long Snappers impress me more and more. Their snapping has become jaw-dropping at earlier ages. They are bigger, stronger, faster much sooner than they used to be with their bodies and, yup, even minds. They, and their parents, have grown into a massive family (which is what I have always hoped for with Rubio Long Snapping). Seriously, think about it, you really don’t see a lot of Long Snapping families eating solo out in Vegas:)

The big national events really bring everyone together. You have Long Snappers, and their families, from all over the world coming to one place to do their best in an extremely stressful environment. Many come and do wonderful their first trip out, while many come and absolutely bomb on their first venture to the desert. More often than not, it is the later (hence why I always say to go as soon as you can in your career).

This video, is yet another example of what I am talking about in being a Rubio Long Snapper. This video personifies emotion and desire.

To say Emmett Odegard, the Long Snapper in the video, has come along way with his snapping would be like saying the Grand Canyon is a crack in the ground. He has been with Rubio Long Snapping for three years and started slow but listened….and listened….and listened….until it all paid off.

Emmett, who was absolutely fantastic all weekend, stormed into the finals as the #2 seed and had some intense battles along the way (7 total snaps against Keaston Sinicki, 5 of which they both scored on!) and was ready to take on, cue the music, Cole Mazza (who was the top seed).

In the video, Emmett was down three points behind Mazza and had to make a 3 pointer to stay alive in the finals. Basically, he had to be perfect and snap the ball through the middle rectangle (one with the chains) or he was done and Mazza would win.

This video shows the emotion of the Long Snapper AND the crowd. This video shows the camaraderie, that so many Long Snappers now possess and I love it. This video shows the desire and compassion of two Long Snappers. Both were exceptional and both should be proud of themselves. I am.

Two great examples of Rubio Long Snappers.

Rubio Long Snapper Justin Greene commits to Air Force!

February 1, 2013 By Rubio

Rubio Long Snapper Justin Greene (TX ’13) has committed to Air Force!

Justin is an extremely strong Long Snapper with a bright future. Built very well and thick with a powerful snap. Once he fine tunes it all, he will be well on his way to greatness.

Justin will be joining Rubio Long Snappers Adonis Smith and Harrison Elliott at Air Force. EXTREMELY proud of all of them for what they are doing on, and especially off, the field.

The 10th TOP 12er is Bronson Bruneau!

January 31, 2013 By Rubio

The 10th member of the exclusive TOP 12 is Bronson Bruneau (MN, ’14)!

Bronson is an incredible talent with an extremely long frame. He snaps the ball very quickly right now and is still raw. With some fine tuning, he could easily move well into the top of his class. Keep a very close eye on this Long Snapper.

Once again, congratulations to the 10th TOP 12er – Bronson Bruneau!

The 9th TOP 12er is Curtis Billen!

January 30, 2013 By Rubio

The 9th member of the exclusive TOP 12 is Curtis Billen (WA, ’14)!

Billen did an exceptional job out in Vegas with excellent form that led to a very, very fast overall average snap of 15 yards (.70). Body is solid and he works right and hard. Billen is on the path to greatness.

Once again, congratulations to the 9th member of the TOP 12 – Curtis Billen!

YouTube videos from the 11th Annual Event

January 30, 2013 By Rubio

ALL of the YouTube videos are up for the Long Snappers from the 11th Annual Event in Las Vegas. To view them, simply go the Rubio Long Snapping YouTube channel and type in the Long Snapper’s name you’d like to embrace. That should give you a list of that Long Snapper’s videos that he has done with me. If you are still having troubles, type in “Rubio Long Snapping, Name of Long Snapper, 11th Annual Event” and this should do it.

KEY POINTS TO REMEMBER:

Anytime you go to a Rubio Long Snapping camp, you get another YouTube video made for you.
All of these videos will be posted on your profile within two more weeks.
Yes, you can use these videos for your own recruiting purposes and you should as it shows credibility from me and not some Average Joe making it.
No, I don’t know how to download them but I bet Google does:)

8th TOP 12er is Davis Winkie!

January 29, 2013 By Rubio

The 8th member of the exclusive TOP 12 is Davis Winkie (GA, ’14)!

Davis has continued to just improve and improve over the past couple of years. Always had tremendous size and just needed to control it. Well, it looks like he is doing it now and that is not good news for the rest of his class. Easy D1 size and speed right now. As long as he continues to maintain his form, there is no telling how far he can go with his snapping.

Once again, congratulations to the 8th member of the TOP 12 – Davis Winkie!

Top 7 Things a Coach Asks Me about a Possible Recruit….

January 29, 2013 By Rubio

How are his grades? (No grades, no college….pretty simple concept, I would hope)

What type of person is he? (Long Snappers have a lot of free time and they want someone they don’t have to worry about)

Would you let him date your daughter? (In other words, can they trust you)

Is he coachable? (Nothing upsets a coach more than someone who thinks they are better than coaching that hears what they are saying and not listening. Trust me, they, and I, know the staring through someone trick)

Do you think he has “it?” (If you don’t know about this, you don’t have “it”)

Does he have video on YouTube? (the only time they bring up another video service, like Brand H, it is with disgust and DVD’s are pretty much obsolete)

Would you hang out with him? (Pretty much rolls with #2, #3, #4 and #5)

In case you haven’t figured it out yet, they don’t ask too much about a recruit’s athletic ability. They will know all about that from talking to me and your football coach. A coach, at any level, and agents, will want to know about things that usually aren’t on paper since those things will play a major role, in the long run, in how you do on the field.

The 7th TOP 12er is Reid Buckingham!

January 28, 2013 By Rubio

The 7th member of the exclusive TOP 12 is Reid Buckingham (KS, ’14)!

Reid had an excellent weekend out in Vegas for the 11th Annual Event. His form is solid and so is his body. As he continues to fine tune the little things, he will continue to move up the charts. Works well under pressure and is driven.

Once again, congratulations to the 7th member of the TOP 12 – Reid Buckingham!

Rubio Long Snapper Rick Lovato of Old Dominion Earns Award!

January 28, 2013 By Rubio

Rubio Long Snapping Rick Lovato of Old Dominion was named to the College Sporting News Fabulous All-American Team!

As you can imagine, this is quite an honor for a true sophomore but very well deserved. TOP 12 Long Snapper Lovato has been flawless in two seasons for the Monarchs.

Lovato is a tremendous Long Snapper and person with a very bright future. He started with Rubio Long Snapping in 2009 and was a late pickup for Old Dominion that panned out beautifully!

Congratulations once again to Rubio Long Snapper Rick Lovato!

Rubio Long Snapper AJ Hantak commits to Eastern Illinois!

January 28, 2013 By Rubio

Rubio Long Snapper AJ Hantak (MO, ’13) has committed to Eastern Illinois on half scholarship!

AJ has a terrific frame for a Long Snapper and is very smooth throughout the process. Long arms and easily can pack on the pounds. I expect great things from him as he plays on Saturdays for the next four years.

When AJ contacted me to let me know of his commitment, he ended with this and I love it “I can’t thank you enough for all you have done for me and how many doors you opened for my future. Thank you so much for everything.”

Congratulations once again to AJ!
