"What I really enjoy at your camps, and most noticeably at this one, is the camaraderie among the competitors. While they are out to beat each other, they still exhibit wonderful sportsmanship and are very supportive of each other. And that begins with you. You can tell each and every one of these kids has the utmost respect for you and the the counselors. And you guys enthusiastically show the same for them. A terrific environment in which to learn."

"Like all parents, I can''t say enough good things about the camp, how it was run, and certainly the expertise you showed (and shared) with the guys. My son really will be a better player because of the few hours spent yesterday. I would like share a lot more with you, but like you, time is short.Also, I am tremendously impressed with how fast you updated the camp info on the web."

"Rubio, I have been meaning to catch up with you for some time. First, I wanted you to know how much my son enjoyed your Top 12 camp. It was no doubt a once in a lifetime experience for him. Getting the boys together by themselves and allowing them to bond or spend time with each other without family distractions is a great idea. I can tell that my son considered this trip very special. I think he will remember this fondly for the rest of his life. Second, I hope you know how much you have meant to my son over the relatively short period of time he has known you. When he first met you last December, he had just finished his first season of long snapping and was just another one of thousands of high school long snappers simply playing football because he loved the sport. He was extremely raw and never had any formal instruction. I believe his high school coach gave him an old DVD to watch. In less than 7 months you transformed him from anonymity into one of the best high school long snappers in the country. Yes, he did work his tail off. But truth be known, he could not even have come close to this accomplishment without you. For this, I thank you very much. The extremely high level of respect that you garner from all of these young men across the country is quite remarkable. You have a tremendous talent and gift that you are able to communicate to these kids that few others possess. My son is not the easiest kid in the world to win over. I have heard him talk about you to his friends, other long snappers, parents, teachers, and coaches. His respect for you is tremendous. From what I understand, he is no exception. The other kids across the nation feel the same way. Many have the ability to teach at a high level. Few command the respect and adoration that you obtain from your students. I hope that at least one of my younger two sons follow his older brother''s footsteps down the path of long snapping. The only way for me to feel more blessed that you have crossed paths with my son is for you to cross paths and influence two of my sons."

"Hi Rubio, I just wanted to let you know, that I have accepted a full athletic scholarship offer to the University of ________ to play Tight End, and I will also be their long snapper. I was recruited and offered for the tight end position, but being able to long snap allowed me to rise up over all the other athletes. I can''t thank you enough for all you knowledge and how much you have taught me."

"The Georgia camp was just amazing! My son really got a lot from it and is already starting utilize the tools he learned. The camp was a great experience for the entire family. We were a little nervous about coming just because he almost had zero experience and no training, but what he learned was extremely helpful and went a long way. He went in with the attitude "I know I''m not good, but all I can do is my must and learn". I think he came out with a little more confidence and a real fire about long snapping."

"Rubio, Thank you again for the great camp today and positive instructions for my son. As I mentioned to you as we were leaving, we attended a different camp last December in Nashville and I found your camp to be far better in instruction, information, and the amount of strong competitors. One of the aspects that stood out to me the most as I watched was the care you have for your students and the positive relationship you have with the multitude of repeat attendee''s to your camp. Thanks again for your help today. It was a pleasure meeting you and I wish you continued success"

The chance to learn and gain knowledge, get the experience, and take the steps needed to follow through to the next level in such a positive environment is truly rejuvenating Rubio! He continues to work hard to perfect his form, build his body and mind, has a great attitude and love for the game, loves you and the proven techniques you've developed and applied in that "RUBIO SWAG" like no other in such a positive way it boarders "true religion" that we both adore and respect in a twisted way"

"I chose not to talk to you about this at the camp Sunday because you had far more important things that needed your attention ... like coaching the proper L-S techniques, etc I know that I am not alone when I say I really appreciate the fact that you are all about being at your camps and teaching them yourself. We have been to other good camps, don't get me wrong, but It is troubling to see the trend that is to simply send a few good local college players to do the actual teaching. A good college player does not necessarily make a good teacher. I love seeing the accomplished college players helping at the camps, but they should simply not be teaching without being supervised by the camp-directors or founders. My son came away with renewed enthusiasm, some great new ideas about how to become a better long-snapper and most importantly a big smile on his face."

"Rubio, Wanted to let you know my son enjoyed the camp again. I cant believe the improvement he has made since March. He started at center on his middle school team and once the coaches figured out he could long snap at 10 yards punting became a huge weapon for them. He didn't have any bad snaps I was shocked he was very consistent."

"Dear Rubio, My son participated in many of your camps, lessons, and National Events in Vegas. While all were impressive, one never knows the effectiveness until it comes time to apply the skills you have taught him. Sure, he showcased his skills at the high school level, but I am talking about how he would perform in a NCAA D1 environment. For my son, there were numerous - proof is in the pudding - moments. Here are a few: 1. My son was offered a preferred walk-on spot at the D1 school of his dreams mainly due to his relationship with your program 2. As a true freshman, he beat out the incumbent senior (not a Rubio student) to earn the starting Long Snapper position 3. His first college snap, occurred in a major NFL stadium , inside the 5 yard line, in front of a very noisy opposing student section, whereby he nailed the snap, then went on to make a solo tackle on the return man. 4. He's had 62 great punt snaps this season, many coming against teams ranked in the Top 25 and at very imposing stadiums with 90,000+ attendance 5. This week, the school awarded him a scholarship that starts in spring. You not only taught him the necessary technical skills needed to become a great snapper, but also gave him the ability and confidence to perform under great pressure. THANKS!!!!!!"

"I wanted to follow up and thank you both again for a super weekend. My son and I had a blast yet again, and every year gets better. You guys do a great job with your personal instruction as well as having some of the top college players/instructors in the country. I was happy to give an interview, but wanted to send an email also.As a parent of a 2012 Sophomore, I only wish we had started earlier than we did. We have been with you guys for almost two years now, and the benefits are beyond the just the great instruction. Your attention to detail in every aspect of your program make it the best on the country. The thing my son and I like the most are the personal relationships you have forged with us, through the camps and also through all of the social media like Facebook, Twitter, etc. Keeping that line of communication going throughout the year makes us feel like we are part of something special. You do a great job of balancing your product and promoting competition among the kids that keep them excited all year. If anyone is not following you via Facebook or Twitter, they are truly missing out on one of the best elements of your program. Thank you for your candidness, objectivity and sincerity in your instruction and communication. Thank you also for all that you have done to help my son grow as a LS and as a young man. It is great to have influences like the two of you beyond what we can give them as parents."

"We owe all of this to you. As you can see, you were his first true long snapping coach. Although he may not say it, I know how much he admires you and finds you to be a great role model. The top twelve and event elite did more for his confidence then I can tell you. After spending time at an "other camp", I can assure you that you are the real deal...period. I''ll be happy to tell anyone this,along with all of the reasons why."
