“Casey was a quarterback, so that helps,” Marciano said. “He can throw. You show him the motion. I did it. I snapped a perfect spiral back to him. So he did it, and did the perfect spiral. So if he can do that, he can put two hands on the ball and do it. If you watch on Monday, he'll be snapping for us."

Never occured to me that being able to throw a pass could be transferred to being an effective long-snapper, but guess it makes sense when you think about it. I dunno, kinda like throwing a pass while standing on ones head ?

I know when I coached Freshman Football, on the first day of practice we made every kid who had ever played QB start practicing at deep snapper because of the similarities. And when I say we, I mean the other coach who was far wiser than I could ever claim to be.
