Player Review

Matt was impressive once again in front of me, this time at the Rubio Long Snapping fall camp in CA. Kid is VERY powerful and hides under the radar. Just kind of does his own thing, quietly, and then is dominant. Ball is fast and hovers in the .7s. Love to see him lean back a bit more and get his butt lower to increase the power in his legs and speed of the ball. Kid is very good and will get a shot. Colleges, keep an eye on him. I will be checking his athleticism very closely at VEGAS XXVII.

VERY impressed with Matt at the Rubio Long Snapping summer camp in GA and CA. Shows great power and uses his whole body well. Ball is fast and he can hit in the .6s. Making sure he gets fully set will really help with the overall consistency of his snaps. Also, locking down his release point will help with his accuracy. I am telling you right now, watch this kid very closely over the next year.

Matt did really well at VEGAS XXV. Kid can flat out snap. Starting form is good and he is using his whole body well. Once he fully locks down his spiral and release point, he will never miss and will EASILY hit in the .7s. He is right on the cusp of greatness. Athletically, he runs very hard but needs to gain control of his body moving forward and laterally. I would keep a very close eye on him at VEGAS XXVI. He could, and should, easily make the EVENT ELITE if he snaps the way I know he can.
