What is your fondest memory of your time playing college football?
\n<\/strong>My fondest college memory was getting the chance to play in a conference championship game and competing against other Rubio long snappers, like Tyler Martin, who was at Rhodes every year.<\/p>\n

If you could give ONE bit of advice to the current Rubio Long Snappers, what would it be?<\/strong>\u00a0Snapping PARENTS, what would it be?
\n<\/strong>One piece of advice for long snappers is to have the mindset of a goldfish. When you line up to snap, don\u2019t overthink\u2014just trust the training and hard work you\u2019ve already put in.<\/p>\n

For parents, my advice is to check in on your long snapper. Make sure they feel relaxed and happy, and confirm that they\u2019re doing okay. A simple \u201cDo you need a snack or some food?\u201d can go a long way.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>When was the last time you snapped a ball and for what reason?<\/strong>
\nThe last a ball was yesterday when I was working with my long snappers and my kickers<\/p>\n

If you could go back and play football in college again, would you go to the same school or a different one? Why?<\/strong>
\nI would go to the same school. You pick a school for all the right fits, not just football. You make sure the school is right for you academically, you feel at home and it makes you happy.<\/p>\n

Any regrets during college?<\/strong>\u00a0Anything you wish you had done or hadn\u2019t done?
\n<\/strong>One regret I have from college is not taking better care of my body. I often avoided the training room for minor aches, when I should have gone in to get them checked out. Doing so would have helped me perform better on the field.<\/p>\n

What tremendous thing have you been a part of or experienced since you graduated?<\/strong>
\nOne of the most meaningful experiences I\u2019ve had is being able to give back to the community that impacted me so much. I get to serve as the Head Lacrosse Coach at my high school while also working as a Special Teams coach.<\/p>\n
