Was a good move to move him to center. Terrible move to have him start at center without knowing how to snap. Cost us games. Great for Cam, bad for NU.Looks like Frost was right about one thing..
That’s isn’t the reason why we lost all those games..Was a good move to move him to center. Terrible move to have him start at center without knowing how to snap. Cost us games. Great for Cam, bad for NU.
Bump for skull and bonz guy.😒
Not all the games. It definitely played a part. No other team would send a center out to start who doesn't know how to snap.That’s isn’t the reason why we lost all those games..
Was it that he didn’t know how to snap or was that he was in to big of a hurry to clobber somebody? He had very bad intentions.Not all the games. It definitely played a part. No other team would send a center out to start who doesn't know how to snap.
He still has those bad intentions and seems to snap fine. I don't think he had any snapping experience prior to being moved to center at NU. Frost should have started him off at guard while he learned to snap or redshirted him. Systemic problem in this program of thinking details like accurate snapping or special teams don't matter. Rhule seems to have carried on the tradition.Was it that he didn’t know how to snap or was that he was in to big of a hurry to clobber somebody? He had very bad intentions.
We needed a center. He got him help during the season but it was as if he had the yips.He still has those bad intentions and seems to snap fine.

Cam redshirted his first year in the program. He spent time at both tight end, where he appeared in one game, and at center, where he spent much of his redshirt season. I’m sure he was snapping all over the place in practice every year and the coaches just ignored it and played him anyway.He still has those bad intentions and seems to snap fine.

We were told that he didn’t have problems with bad snaps in practice.🤷♂️Cam redshirted his first year in the program.

And we’re assuming that there aren’t different snap techniques being taught by different NFL coaches. That said, whatever changes were made helped him immensely.Zatecha said his ball position was bad, IIRC that it was in front of, rather than directly under his head. Seemed surprised he hadn’t been taught that. One of many hints that the program was screwed up.
Pretty cool that a guy just starting his career got to play and practice a year with an all time great and then take all of those lessons and apply them to continue the stellar play of that position.In his first season as a starting center, Cam has filled the shoes of an NFL legend. Quite impressive. Go Birds!
