    Vinson had a tremendous weekend at the Rubio Long Snapping VEGAS XXXI Event on January 12-14, 2018. It was amazing to see his improvement in a short amount of time (see below). Vinson was overflowing with confidence, ripping the ball back to the punter. and had an extemely tight spiral on each and every snap to a punter and/or holder. His ball was smooth all weekend and he moves pretty darn well on his feet. To really dominate at the college level, Vinson will need to continue to gain strength and work on his footwork. Absolutely great attitude. 

    Vinson was solid at the Rubio Long Snapping Fall Camp in Ohio on December 17th, 2017. Body is good and he is moving well on his feet. Vinson has great accuracy and rarely, and I mean very rarely, misses a snap outside of the Rubio Zone. Form is on point and he is using his whole body well. Need to see Vinson focus heavily on locking down his spiral so the ball will slice through the wind and make it much easier for the punter to catch the ball. Ligtening up his hand pressure and really following through with his fingers should do the trick. Tremendous attitude on Vinson and he is always great to see.

    Vinson did extremely well at the Rubio Long Snapping TOP 12 Camp in Tampa, FL. Very solid Long Snapper with an excellent personality. Vinson can easily dominate a room with his charisma. His ball is very consistent with times always hovering in the mid to low .7s. His frame is good and he still could grow if needed. Improving his overall athleticism and speed on the ball will be huge for Vinson moving to a 5 Star Rubio Long Snapper. Big things ahead for Vinson...no matter what he is doing.
