As one of the Founders of the Award this change will eliminate any issues about who was a Senior as the original goal was to recognize snappers in the final college season. Now it is open to any FBS snapper!
BREAKING!!!
Consideration for The Patrick Mannelly Award is now open to any FBS Long Snapper, regardless of class year.
Bottom line: a Long Snapper no longer needs to be a senior to win the top college Long Snapper of the year award!
