We've been discussing the defensive capabilities, or lack thereof, of some teams in the other sub-forum. I'm certain scouts have already contacted some of these kids looking to beef up their D-line. :lol: :lol:

That is great. I don't think you can snap the ball like that, though.

While resting on the ground and before the snap, the long axis of the ball must be at right angles to the scrimmage line (Rule 1-23-1 (d) and 7-1-3-a-1). The snap need not be between the snapper’s legs; but to be legal, it must be a quick and continuous backward motion. (1-23-1(g) IMO this would have been an illegal snap.

I am sure this would draw a flag, unless of course it was used against Arkansas. :D
