2016 Season Countdown: #92 Andrew Robinson

2016 Season Countdown: #92 Andrew Robinson

Name: Andrew Robinson
Height; 5’11”
Weight: 220 lbs.
High school: Troy (MI) Athens
Position: Long snapper
Class: Redshirt sophomore
Jersey number: #41
Last year: I did not rank Robinson. He played in one game.

I believe this is the first time I’ve included a backup long snapper in a countdown, though I have included a long snapper and short snapper in previous countdowns. Anyway, last year Scott Sypniewski was the full-time snapper until his thumb was hurt on the most devastating play of the 2015 season. He had snapping issues after that, and Robinson stepped in for one game against Penn State to let Sypniewski heal. You may not have noticed that the backup long snapper was playing, which means Robinson did a solid job. Rivals threw out a rumor earlier this spring that Sypniewski might even be looking to transfer, but as of now, it looks like Robinson will be his backup.

Prediction: Backup long snapper

    And with this post I learn who will be wearing #41, which was Rob Lytle’s number.

    Every year I check out who’s wearing the number. It’s been a while since anyone memorable has had it.

    Here’s hoping Mr. Robinson does the number honor! 🙂
