"We just wanted to say "thanks" for everything, so far. In the past couple of weeks our son has received communications from several top universities, with your name attached to both, as a reference. This is truly a big deal! You can''t imagine the look on our son''s face, opening the envelopes. So, from the bottom of our hearts, "thanks"! We''ll see you in Vegas, in about a month.

"I really can''t express my gratitude for what this is doing for not only him but all other 5 siblings. They are all believing that you can achieve anything. Your programs have been VERY significant in this great schedule and involvement that we as a family take part in together everyday. Our 11 year old Daughter works right along side all the boys, but she wants a less important role on the team, she wants to be the QB. Thanks again for your help."

"Thanks for a great and rewarding weekend in Las Vegas! This was by far the best organized and quality two day experience my son has had learning the proper techniques for deep and PAT/FG snaps. As a Dad it is very gratifying seeing my son continue to grow in ability and confidence as a result of your teaching techniques. The other wonderful experience is getting to meet other Dads (and Moms) and to follow the growth and development of their sons. We are looking forward to your next camp(s) and are excited about the 2010 football season when my son can continue to fine tune his skills on the field with the Varsity team!"

"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."

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."

Thanks for all the updates.I am impressed how up to the minute everything was.Great stuff. Honestly, I believe your camp has done more for building his confidence and motivating him than any other camp or event I can think of. Now, he truly believes his goals are attainable.

We will always be thankful that we were introduced to you and CSK and the exposure that my son received from this relationship. The result is a scholarship to a major division one college!

"Rubio, I would like to thank you for the years of instruction that you have provided. Since last May, I have taken your critique and worked tirelessly to perfect my skills. Over the summer, I attended numerous camps and the Rubio Long Snapping students certainly are a cut above the rest; a true testament to your efforts. I accepted the scholarship offer to ______ because I felt it was the right fit both academically and athletically. With thanks to you (and my family) my ever-lasting goal of playing college football is becoming reality."

"Just wanted to thank you for the help you offered to my son with his long snapping during your recent clinic in So Cal.We took the pointers you offered from my son's film analysis and he has been working hard with regular practice to really improve his weaknesses.He has already been offered a walk on spot at a Division 2 college and is being actively recruited by two of the top junior colleges in Northern California.That''s why I''m writing now, he went for a workout yesterday at one of the Junior Colleges and the Special Teams coach challenged him to a long snapping test right on the spot with several players on the team watching.He had my son do 5 snaps from the goal line with a target of hitting the goal post (12 yards) -- he then had him do 5 snaps from the PAT hold line (15 yards).My son hit the goal post (NO PAD AROUND IT--just the 8 inch stem pipe) 4 out of 5 times on BOTH TESTS -- and just missed on the other two. While they weren't timed, when they hit the goal post it rang like a bell and the players watching were like "whoa--we got a long snapper!" So I took that as a good sign.The Coach was impressed and indicated to my son he would have an excellent chance to start as a Freshman if he goes to this school.I really give you a lot of credit for building Daniel''s confidence and inspiring him to take his work ethic to another level which allowed him to produce these "results under pressure"He still has work to do to get to his goals, but he has come a long way since your clinic and I just wanted to thank you for all you do for guys like my son."

"Hi Rubio,I wanted to thank you for yet another extremely well run Camp in Dallas on Sunday. You have an awesome way of remembering each boy''s name and knowing exactly what you tell or say to them and using it to enrich the video sessions, that is very impressive. The video sessions are great because the boys can hear what you have to say about each participant and use it for their own good. The recruiting session you did this time was spot on information that not only the boys need to hear but very good for parents like me where this is the first time sending a child off to college. Thank you for your honest critique on my son. He gets so much out of your camps, from getting back to the basic fundamentals of Snapping to knowing exactly what he needs to work on and how to do it ~ and...he always leaves with more confidence. Also thanks so much for sitting with us at lunch, my son really enjoyed that a lot. I really meant it when I said that we are glad that we found you. I was going to add that the way you run your organization is top notch and the way you relate to the boys makes them feel like they have an instant friend that is truly interested in doing something positive for them. That is so important at this time in their lives. So just know you are appreciated for all you do for my son. We look forward to Vegas next month and California in July and hopefully a time or two in between."

"Coach Rubio, Thanks for the detailed feedback. I've been to a lot of camps for all my sports since I was little, including all my positions in football, but I honestly have to say, your camp in Charlotte was the most technically informative, thorough, and fun in the shortest amount of time. I think we got a lot accomplished, and I know I learned a lot. (I've been practicing and doing the drills already so I can move up the ranks in Las Vegas.) Your response time to my questions and the quality of your feedback is unbelievable. I really appreciate it and am hopeful that it (along with the hard work I''ll put in to improve) will help land me in a good place for college. You have a great coaching style, too. You definitely don''t hold back, but you deliver your message in the most constructive and motivating way. I've had a lot of coaches, and not many can do that."

"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."
