They say you only remember the long-snapper’s name if he does something bad. That’s not quite true — former Tiger Beau Brinkley is so good at his job that he’s still earning a million dollars a year to long-snap in the NFL, and I would say quite a few Mizzou fans probably remember his name.
However, if you asked Mizzou fans to name the team’s current long-snapper, you might get a blank look. I know I couldn’t have named James Workman III right offhand, at least not until reading this Missourian piece.
