"Rubio, I am gonna tell it to you straight as any true New Yorker would. My son attended his first national showcase for longsnapping in December of 2013. I knew very little about the specialty or how to guide my son to the right folks. At that showcase one of the parents told me only to use that company only and quite frankly stay away from you. The 2 reasons: You have a big ego and just want your name out there and you only advance the kids who attend numerous camps. Being new to this world I trusted what I heard. Shame on me! Two national showcases and a camp later, not to mention numerous dollars on travel, profile page and new film, I find myself wondering if I could have invested better. At the same time I was contemplating, I began following you on all the social media sites. Day after day I saw you posting about signing longsnappers. As my son just began his senior year I began to recognize how precious time and money was and in a "last ditch effort" of sorts I chose to bring him to your camp in NY. In the first 10 minutes, I recognized the immediate connection you had with the players. In the first 30 minutes I was asked to join with my son on the field for drills. This gave me the opportunity to learn some simple techniques so that I can be a partner with in his success. All day long I was included and my son was being engaged by you, learning new techniques that will advance and enhance his skills. There were 30 snappers there and you found time to connect with each one. The guidance on and off the field is on point. In response to the parent who I listened to: About your ego... We all have one. You are a marketing genius! You get my kids name out there, feel free to add your name to it. Because at the end of the day, the one thing I want is my kids name out there. When the day was done I walked away with a few thoughts: 1.) Do the research myself 2) You have a personality as big as your smile 3) My son received more value based training for the $350 I spent with you in comparison. I am a firm believer in when the student is ready the teacher appears. I am glad he had the opportunity to find you."

"I want to thank you so much for all you have done the past years for teaching and investing in my son. As a dad, I really like reading all your training stuff and blog. You do a awesome job of investing in students and parents."

"From the drills to how you conduct yourself in the recruiting process, the camp was excellent. Even if he doesn't take another snap in high school or college - this experience was worth every penny. Thank you!"

"Rubio, We just wanted to tell you that your camp in Chicago was by far the best instructional camp that my son has been to"

"It’s all your fault! Because of you, my oldest son has played in every PAC-12 stadium in the country. Because of you, he has played in AT&T Park, Qualcomm Stadium and CenturyLink Field. Because of you he earned an athletic scholarship, has a beautiful bowl ring and is about to graduate from the finest institution in the great state of Washington! Because of you he has met a girl, applied for his dream job and is ready to make his mark on the world. Because of you, my second son has just committed to being a student-athlete at one of the top-rated university’s in the country. A university that is only able to accept 5% of those who apply. Because of you, he will soon be part of a football program that is getting ready to absolutely dominate Division 1 college football. Because of you, he is working harder and smarter to be ready to follow in the footsteps of legendary Rubio long snappers. I can still remember that fateful day in March of 2009, when I made the phone call and my family became part of the Rubio Long Snapping family. It’s been a ride Rubio, and I can’t wait for the future. Yes, it’s all your fault and I wouldn’t change a thing. Thank you!"

"We thank you for all you have done for our son. He is going to play college football and that is a direct result of you and your program and all you have helped to instill in him. Not just the physical skill of throwing that thing upside down, but the character and drive as well."

"Hey Rubio, I know I went to only one of your camps but I just wanted to tell you thank you because even just going to one of your camps helped me a ton and i did everything you helped me with everyday and it landed me with committing to _________, I wish I had come to more camps! Thank you!"

"Rubio, I want to say thank you so very much and let you know how much we appreciate everything you do and all that you have done to help my son reach and achieve his lifelong goal of earning a scholarship and having the opportunity to play football at a Division One University. As a parent, being able to watch our son sign his National Letter of Intent this past Wednesday was one of the proudest moments of our lives. To see the countless hours of training, hard work, sacrifice and preperation that he has put in thru all of his young life, pay off in earning a scholarship is truly priceless. What is even more incredible is the lessons he has learned about not only being a great long snapper but being a person of great respect and character. The friendships and bonds that have been made over the years with the other members of the "Rubio Family" are friendships that will last forever. As the countless hours of hard work and preparation are continuing, I want to say thanks again and we are looking forward to seeing you soon as this incredible journey continues. Thank You"

"I feel with all of the information you provide, players should never go to a school blind-sided (no pun intended!). Thank you again for your leadership and dedication to Long Snapping, character development and the path to college success."

"I have only been to two of your camps in Georgia and they have helped me tremendously and have landed me a preferred walk on at _________ University which I have taken. Thank you so much for all you do!"

"We appreciate all you have done for our son--we know it was your guidance/teaching that taught him proper form and what to do--so thank you"

"I want to personally thank you for an experience that he and I will never forget. That camp was oozing with professionalism as you and Sailer kept a tight schedule, moved hundreds of kids through the camp and made it look pain free and effortless. What is even more amazing was to watch you take care and interest in each kid individually. I watched as you moved around the camp and it made me so proud of our decision to choose you and your camp. The instructors were just as impressive and you serve as an incredible mentor to these guys who show how much respect they have for you by how they treat your students at the camp. Congratulations on such an incredible program."

"Amazing camp this past weekend! Thank you for everything! My son really enjoyed the camp and learned a lot from your amazing instructors. He’s looking forward to the next camp! Very well ran, very organized, truly a wonderful positive experience for all the boys to experience."

"Rubio, I just wanted to say thank you for the great camp, my son and I both learned a great deal from you and had a great time. Thanks again and can't wait to see you at the next camp!"

"Rubio, I just wanted to Thank You for everything you have done to help my son. This past weekend we watched his video from last December and compared it to the film from the LSU camp (that I recorded) and are amazed at the improvement! After having endured the back injury he had last season and having to basically learn how to snap again and “find his spiral”, to having an offer from a D1 AA program in 8 months is phenomenal in our Opinion. None of this would have been possible without the teaching and confidence building you and the other Rubio instructors and Snappers have done. We as a family cannot Thank you enough! Bratstvo Dugih Snappers (Fraternity of Long Snappers) you have created is simply amazing. All of your Guys are always willing to help any fellow LongSnapper improve, regardless of competition. You have done well Sir, and on behalf of My Son and Our Family. THANK YOU! It so nice to see him walk and Snap with Confidence again."

"You Sir, are an inspiration to many…..I hope you realize that."

"The talent level of the instructors and educational approach taken to coaching / teaching this highly important skill position far surpassed anything I have ever seen, unbelievably great stuff."

"Rubio, I just wanted to say "Thank You" for a great (albeit wet) camp in California. This was my son's first ever instruction for long snapping, and all of the information and instruction was more than worth the price of the camp. He is is already bugging me to schedule the next camp. Love to see the confidence in him, and am ready, willing, and able to recommend your camps to anyone willing to listen. Thanks again!"

"I just want you to know that over the last year since he started going to your camps you have made a great impact on our son both as a long snapper as well as being a great role model for him."

"The sense of camaraderie that they all feel for one another has been absolutely amazing. My son has made friends all over the county, all over the state, and truly, all over the country. The way that they all pull for one another and the sense of fraternity that they feel for one another is absolutely awe inspiring. The guidance that you have given over these years has set a foundation for life. I cannot express to you enough how grateful we are for the advice and inspiration that you have shared. I will forever be indebted to you for all that you have done, not only in making this dream come true for Travis, but for surrounding him with such support and friendships that will last him a lifetime. Grateful beyond words"

"Rubio, I just wanted to personally thank you for being the guru and positive role model for all Rubio long snappers. Rubio camps are more than long snapping, it is about molding a young man to be the best man he can be. Proud to be a member of the Rubio long snapping family."

"Rubio, Thanks for all the great instruction you have provided over the last three years. What started as a dream for my son of just getting on the High School team bus has developed into an opportunity to play at the college level. He is beyond excited, and can't wait for this next chapter to begin."

"Thank you and all of you coaches for everything. At our first camp my I was completely impressed with the way your camp was ran. And your level of commitment to each kid there. My son would not be where he is today without Rubio long snapping. His offer from ______ yesterday was a huge honor. Thank u again for all you and your staff has done to change the life's of so many young men."

"I cannot believe how you guys could out-do last years camp but this was hands-down the best! The coordination of hundreds of young men and their families was something that had to be witnessed to be believed! With all that going on; you and your staff still gave athletes individual attention they craved!"

"I wanted to commend you and staff on a well organized camp. My son has improved his snapping so much in the short time he has been attending your camps."

"Rubio, I am happy to say that your camp lit a fire inside of my son that was well worth the price of admission. Your instructors were very knowledgable and excellent teachers of the craft."

"Rubio, I just wanted to thank you for what you have done for my son. He is now 1 of 4 sophomores traveling with the varsity team. What you have provided him from a skills standpoint has been amazing, however fails in comparison to what this has done for his confidence. He went from a JV linebacker to the talk of the program with one snap in practice. He snaps every ball as if we were in the backyard. I ask him the other day if he was nervous and he said if he could snap at one of your camps with the best in the country he could snap anywhere. Just know you’re building more than great snappers, you’re helping shape great young men."

"Coach Rubio, I wanted to express my appreciation for the camp experience this weekend. My son and I thought the instruction was awesome, and we will be looking to attend another camp in the fall or winter session. We wish that we had heard about your camp when my son was in middle school."

"When my son arrived home, his mother asked him how it was and his response was “he loved it, learned more in one day than he has in 3 yrs in HS, and wants to attend the December camp and the Vegas camp.” He followed up by telling her how much he enjoyed your coaching and that you seemed like a coach that he could talk to at any time."

"Rubio, I wanted to reach out to you and let you know how much the Rubio target has helped my son. Since our first day with it, he has made huge progress and it has really come together over this past week. He actually says “it makes Long Snapping fun”.

"Rubio, without your help and support, I would not be where I am, nor my brother. You've permanently changed our lives for the better and I honestly can't thank you enough!"

"Rubio, As a parent I want to thank you for all you have done to help my son reach his goal of long snapping for a Division 1 FBS school. When we started with you 4 years ago our goal was to utilize long snapping as a tool to earn a scholarship and possibly gain entrance into a school he might not otherwise be able to get into. I believe we have reached our goals and your instruction was a big part of it. Thank you again for all you have done."

"Chris, I just wanted to personally thank you for your help with my son! Attending his first camp (Chicago) with you the summer before his Junior year in high school “flipped a switch” for him where he was determined to snap at the next level. It has been so much fun to see him improvement over the past 2 years. He has met some awesome people along the way too including fellow long snappers, instructors, and parents. Those friendships will last a very long time too. Additionally, it will be a lot of fun watching guys at the next level – all over the country at all levels. Thanks again Chris – just wanted you to know how thankful we are to have been a part of the Rubio following!"

"Rubio, I am extremely excited to let you know that I am committing to _____________ as a preferred walk-on! I can't thank you enough for helping me along this journey and being a great source of learning and inspiration! Being apart of the Rubio Long Snapping family is something that I am extremely proud of and will treasure forever! Thank you again!!"

"Rubio, I wanted to express how thankful I am for you and all that you have done for me. When I first came to you in Lewiston for a lesson back in 2012 my snapping was a mess and I was struggling to even make the JV team. I remember you asked me what colleges I was interested in and Cal was one of them and now after three years of hard work and your guidance I get to earn a degree from one of the best universities in the country as well as play for a pac 12 football team. Not only do I get to attend Cal but I had options and without a doubt this would not have happened without you. I hear people all the time saying that certain people and things change their life but I can say with complete confidence and from the bottom of my heart that you and your instruction has changed my life and changed who I am as a person. When I first met you I was very lost and I was worried about what my future held but due to the opportunity that you presented to me I worked my tail off because I wanted to be ranked a 5 star Rubio Long Snapper and have a college next to my name in the rankings. I really can't thank you enough for all that you have done for me because it is hard to put into words. If you ever need someone to talk about how impactful Rubio Long Snapping is, I'm your guy. Again thank you for everything and I look forward to four more years of dominance representing Rubio Long Snapping to the best of my abilities."

"Rubio, I know my son has already reached out and thanked you for all you have done to help him attain his long snapping goal and start on the next phase of his football life. My wife and I wanted to thank you as well not only for being a great mentor/motivator to our son, but you take a skill that most have never heard of, and those that have think is not really a skill, and legitimize it. So many people, fans, players, and even coaches have dismissed the notion of a long snapper actually going to college on scholarship to be just a long snapper. I am sure that over the last 6-7 years our son has really had to check his confidence when he tells people that that is exactly what he was going to do. I know that his exposure to your program left no doubt that long snapping in college on scholarship was attainable, and with us it was never so much about the financial pluses from a scholarship it was about reaching a goal especially against mainstream and peer acceptance. I think that your parental involvement at your camps was very critical in Hunters recruiting process. Teaching parents what to do and more importantly what not to do was a great tool in our visits and was a good checklist that we tried to always do before we met with coaches, and we definitely witnessed what not to do on a couple of those visits from other parents. Any parent who simply sends there kid to camp or drops them off is missing out on a big portion of what you and Sailer do."

"I wanted to thank you for putting on the Vegas camp and the way you run it. I have been in football for over 20 years and been to a countless number of camp and I have to say the professionalism and attention to detail that you and Sailor run your camps is very refreshing. It makes it very nice to have things move and be on time so they families can plan their day also"

"Rubio – I wanted to tell you how impressed I was with the Vegas XXV camp. My son and I had never been to a Vegas camp before, and it was an awesome experience. It was everything we thought it would be and much more. Everything was very well organized. Each session had a lot of great instruction and competition. Having the best long snappers from college and the NFL show their techniques and interact with all the snappers was great. The environment was electric, and one of the best things was that you and all your instructors really worked with every snapper – whether they were beginners or the top of their class – to make them better snappers. In fact, I have never been to a Rubio camp where I did not feel my son came out of it as an improved football player and snapper. I know that you put in a ton of preparation to put on Vegas XXV and it showed."

"Please know that you played a role in him developing, not only into a decent long snapper, but also into a man of character. Thank you tremendously for the program you have in place."

"You are not only giving my son the tools to be a great long snapper, you are giving him the tools to be great in life. It is worth every dime, every mile, every drive thru meal, every so hot my shoes melt to the turf day, EVERY sacrifice made to see my son become not just a good football player, but a great athlete and young man. How many times will I say thanks? As many times and every time I have the chance. You are helping mold my son's future, and we don't take that lightly at our house. Thank you."

"Thank you for all you have done for my son this past year,we would be no where without your guidance and training. You have given him opportunities that would not have existed otherwise."

"Coach Rubio, First of all, thank you for the countless effort you put forth in running your camp. I have coached youth football for 15 years and your camp was the best I have ever seen"

"Just want to thank you for who you are and your impact on my son's life. He has grown into a confident young man in less than a year. Not even a year ago was his first camp and today he is far less shy and a much better snapper. All while never becoming prideful nor compromising his values. THANK YOU. Rubio....... THANK YOU"

"I just wanted to thank you for all of your help both on and off the field. Your camps really helped my snaps and your blogs helped immeasurably in the recruiting process"

"I can't thank you enough for all you've done for me in helping me to get to where I am today; I couldn't have done it without you."

"Thanks for the training, support and most of all exposure that you have brought to help my son get to this point"

"Hello Rubio, Just wanted to let you know that I committed to __________ . Also wanted to thank you for making me a better snapper and an even better person, as well as giving me the opportunity to play in college. Without your camps I would know nothing of recruiting and would have ended my high school career as a second string center. Thanks for everything."

"Rubio, next Wednesday I will be signing with _________ and I am very excited. I know I couldn't have made it this far without you. Thank you so much for everything you've done for me! You've been a great mentor and an even better friend. Thanks again for everything!"

"As a Mom, I especially appreciate your relationship with the players. Your encouragement, inspiration, honesty and support is priceless."

"Rubio, I want to let you know that the Vegas XXV event was an awesome experience for me and was even greater than I expected. I was very nervous, but what I learned over the weekend was so valuable. It was especially helpful to watch the more experienced snappers."
