According to Kohl's Kicking, he's the #14 Long Snapper and a 5 star to them.
From Kohl's: "Wagner was dominant throughout the Kohl’s Southern Showcase. I have seen glimpses of his talent at previous camps but Wagner put it all on display in Atlanta. He finished camp with the second highest charting score in the country. Not only was he dominant during the charting session but he also won the camp wide snapping competition. Wagner has great size and will be able to make an immediate impact for any program in the country."
Welcome William! Hopefully you perform admirably throughout, but we never really hear your name.

That's great and congratulations to Mr. Wagner.
As a side note, "According to Kohl's Kicking, he's the #14 Long Snapper and a 5 star to them."
I'm sorry but even the #14 QB is not a 5 star. How can the #14 LS be a 5 star?
January 31st, 2019 at 4:16 PM ^
Long snappers are people too.
January 31st, 2019 at 4:19 PM ^
Yes, important pieces of the team and undervalued by fans.
But my point is - are like the top 20 long snappers all 5 stars? Just seemed like a statement without merit.
January 31st, 2019 at 4:34 PM ^
The top 15 long snappers are 5 stars. It doesn't mean much, but thought I'd throw it in there
January 31st, 2019 at 4:18 PM ^
Maybe a few of the top guys get a 5.5 or 6 - kind of like that amplifier in Spinal Tap that goes to eleven...
February 1st, 2019 at 11:05 AM ^
Tesla volume hits 11 too!!!
January 31st, 2019 at 7:15 PM ^
Maybe they think he should be rated higher. Ummmm

Welcome, William Wagner!
February 1st, 2019 at 7:49 AM ^
Agreed. But I'd much prefer if his first name was Franz. Or his last name was Wallace.
January 31st, 2019 at 4:15 PM ^
Another long snapper with an alliterative name. The future is bright. Welcome!
January 31st, 2019 at 4:35 PM ^
Certainly we can find a holder named something like Blake Biddlesworth to hold for Karl Kaska.
In fact, Kohl’s certainly must have had a dominant holder at their most recent showcase. Get that guy, as long as his name fits criteria.
January 31st, 2019 at 4:44 PM ^
Considering that holders are usually walk on QBs, that would be Andy Maddox. Other QBs with PWO offers (from touch-the-banner) Ren Hefley, and Cole Kosco.
January 31st, 2019 at 5:41 PM ^
??
Okay, We can work with Cole Kosco.
February 1st, 2019 at 12:58 PM ^
Didn't Vilhelm Vagner and Karl Kerska win gold for Deutschland in two-man bobsled at the last Olympics?
January 31st, 2019 at 4:20 PM ^
I just saw a long snapper described as dominant. 2019 - strange times indeed
Welcome William Wallace Wagner, may you be the most dominant long snapper in the Western Hemisphere.
January 31st, 2019 at 9:12 PM ^
William Wallace (?) Wagner. Has anyone on the world wide web indicated whether he has a brave heart?
January 31st, 2019 at 4:23 PM ^
All your Wagner's belong to us!!
January 31st, 2019 at 4:25 PM ^
Do we call him Willy Wag? I know. I'm 12.
January 31st, 2019 at 4:43 PM ^
I for one will immediately begin calling him William Vagner.
January 31st, 2019 at 7:22 PM ^
Me too.
And I want to see what his mom looks like.
January 31st, 2019 at 8:14 PM ^

January 31st, 2019 at 4:52 PM ^
Ohh the life of a long snapper, the only time people ever know your name is if you screw up. So hopefully we never know it and he has a great career.
January 31st, 2019 at 8:49 PM ^
That's not entirely true. Or have you forgotten the immortal Jareth Glanda, who caught an 11-yard Drew Dileo pass on a fake field goal in the 2012 Sugar Bowl?
But yeah, the odds are low.
January 31st, 2019 at 4:59 PM ^
Welcome aboard. Go Blue!!!
January 31st, 2019 at 5:04 PM ^
Those long snappers pack a pretty big bite! Welcome William.
January 31st, 2019 at 5:46 PM ^
Long snappers are and always will be the Big Man on Campus. Welcome, William.
January 31st, 2019 at 6:08 PM ^
Good for him. Now, after this, I hope to never hear his name mentioned again.
January 31st, 2019 at 6:55 PM ^
With the (sorta) new rules that’s a pretty good job.
January 31st, 2019 at 7:12 PM ^
Gotta have stability there...welcome young man
HAIL!
January 31st, 2019 at 7:30 PM ^
For a second I thought Mo's lil bro had committed. But it's nice to welcome another Wagner to the fold. May he ride like a Valkyrie.
January 31st, 2019 at 8:07 PM ^
February 1st, 2019 at 8:08 AM ^
Let me tell you something , he can be whatever they say he is, but just " DO NOT" snap the fucking ball over the QB's head !
