Purdue has a grand tradition of long snapping. John Finch was outspoken. Kevin Ballinger had his own blog as the Mark Titus of College Football. Jesse Schmitt had his own video series as the summer intern for Purdue sports. They are all gone now, so Purdue needs a new long snapper. The best are players that no one knows, because unless you're an obsessive blogger like me you don't know the long snapper until he screws up. The three previous guys were excellent at their jobs.
We recruited a specific long snapper in Ben Makowski, but we already have a senior on the roster that might get his first career playing time this year.
