While some might not consider long snapper to be a position worthy of a scholarship, one you can rely upon is a valuable commodity. With Dan Godsil, unanimously considered one of the better long snappers in the country, is a senior so Tom Allen wanted to make sure he landed a scholarship player in this specialist position in the 2019 class. Sean Wracher, a 6'4" prospect from Ohio, gave him just that as he committed and joined the quickly growing "IUnit19". Wracher plays at St.Ignatius High School in Ohio and participated in the prestigious Kohl's Underclassmen Challenge, finishing near the top of the camp charts and establishing himself as one of the best long snappers in this class. He chose IU over offers from Penn State, Pittsburgh and Toledo.
The scouts at the Kohl's camp were impressed with Wracher, writing the following: "Wracher is a snapper that has continued to develop into one of the most intriguing prospects in the 2019 class. He has a massive frame with room to develop and grow physically. He attended the Kohl’s Underclassmen Challenge and snapped with confidence and precision the entire weekend. He finished the weekend with the second and third best overall charting scores for the 2019 class. Not only was he a force at the Underclassmen Challenge but he also won the snapping competition at the Kohl's Eastern Showcase. Wracher is a prospect that has all the attributes a coach is looking for in a snapper."
The 2019 prospect is the ninth player to commit for 2019 and he will be expected to step into his role as a starting long snapper right away.
