Scott Daly • Class of 2012 • Long Snappers

 

Player Review

What else needs to be said about Daly? The kid is just a machine when he is snapping the ball. Might have the quickest hands in the country and his form is impecable. Built like stallion and runs like one, too. Very, very smooth ball that is always right on target. Notre Dame is lucky to have him for the next four years. 



Daly came out to Vegas and just solidified his position at the top of the Long Snappers. He is fast, athletic, smooth, consistent, accurate, blocks and is a great human being. What more could Notre Dame want? Nothing. He is it and should be it for quite some time if he continues working the way he does right now. Knowing Daly, I don't think this will be an issue. If I had to be picky, I would want him to pause just a tad more on some of his snaps. Even when he doesn't pause, he is exceptional...pausing would just make it unfair since he would be so far out of reach to others. Excellent Long Snapper and person. Excellent pick by the Irish.  



Daly is a work horse. Plain and simple. You can tell him what to work on (doesn't need much, if anything now) and you can consider it done....and I mean DONE with perfection. Form is exceptional and creates an incredible amount of speed with how quickly he locks his legs at when he snaps. As good as his form is, the more impressive thing is actually how quick his hands are. The ball is half way back before you even realize it. There is absolutely no wasted movement what so ever when Daly is snapping. Easily one of the best I have ever worked with in the last decade.



Daly is just flat out great. Most Long Snappers get to the top and rest on their laurels....not this one. He has actually worked harder to make himself even better. Body is excellent and his attitude is off the charts. Ball is shockingly fast and smooth. Runs like the wind. Overall fantastic human being and snapper. Can't say enough good things about him.

Daly might be the smoothest Long Snapper I have ever worked with in my time. His hands are so fast that that is actually his only weakness. Couple times he just started the process a tad too early instead of allowing himself to get set. When he gets set, there is no one close to him. It is very hard to time him due to the speed of his hands. Blocks very well and runs better. PATs are handed to the holder. Body is glorious. As good of a Long Snapper (pretty good if you couldn't tell) he is a better person. Notre Dame will be talking about this person for a long time.
