Player Review

Borak was solid at the Rubio Long Snapping Spring Camp in CA on March 1, 2020. His spiral is fantastic and the ball practically sticks to the punter’s hands. His ball is very easy to catch and hovers in the upper .7s. Excellent starting form and Borak is able to use his whole body very well. Good pop and I absolutely love when he is letting the ball fly out of his hands. Lives in AZ but would love to snap in college in the Northeast. Mature Long Snapper that is open to playing anywhere. He has all of the tools to make it happen. 

Borak had a very impressive day at the Rubio Long Snapping Fall Camp in IL on December 15th, 2019. I have seen him many times and this was, by far, the best I have seen Borak snap the ball. Came all the way from AZ and left no doubt he was ready to roll all day long in Chicago. His form was looking solid and he was using his whole body well to gain some good speed on the ball. When he was really letting the ball fly out of his hands, he was having no problem getting the ball into the mid .7s. Excellent improvement on Borak and I am excited to see him at VEGAS XXXV in January. 

Borak showed me some good things at the Rubio Long Snapping Summer Camp in IL on July 8th, 2019. Good attitude and Borak works hard. His balance is solid and starting form is very solid. His hands are really quick and he is able to drive his upper body through really well. Need to see Borak continue to focus on getting all of his lower half fully involved to gain more speed on the ball. Love how powerful his upper body and how well he drives it through. 

James had a very good day the Rubio Long Snapping Spring Camp in Arizona on March 31, 2019. James is an incredibly smooth snapper. His catchability is phenomenal when you combine his consistency with accuracy and ability to throw a tight spiral. He does a great job of maintaining solid composure and when he does have a bad snap, he rebounds very quickly. I would like to see James snap the ball with more power. He can easily do this by widening his stance a bit to ensure his elbows get through and dropping his butt to a position where his back is more parallel to the ground. After making these minor adjustments, I believe James can compete with anyone in his class. James has a solid opportunity to continue to make a name for himself at his next Rubio Long Snapping event.

Borak was solid at the Rubio Long Snapping VEGAS XXXIII Event on January 19-20, 2019. Really smooth Long Snapper that gets his upper body through well. Dives his chest through like a champ. Quick upper body movements get the ball out of the gate well. Improving his leg power and making sure he is moving with confidence on his feet is going to be huge for Borak. He is smooth and accurate, so now I want to see him use all of his power as well. Listens well.
