Adonis Smith (Cedar Hill, Texas/Cedar Hill) heard about Bakersfield (Calif.) Liberty’s Cole Mazza’s commitment to Alabama on Thursday. It was further proof to him that long snappers are in demand.
Smith was listed as a linebacker on Cedar Hill’s roster last season, but he’s shown himself as a reliable wide receiver during the spring and the summer off-season programs. Smith’s calling card in college, however, may be a special teams participant as a long snapper.
“I’ve heard about [Mazza]. He works with guy I work with,” Smith said, referring to Chris Rubio, considered one of the premier long snapping coaches in the country. “[Mazza] has been getting a lot of offers, so I’m not surprised about him.
