Youngstown State’s young, highly rated long snapper with a local edge
George Gabriel entered Youngstown State in the 2024 season as a freshman long snapper from Cardinal Mooney in Youngstown, where he also played defensive end and center and earned second-team All-Steel Valley Conference honors as an offensive lineman; recruiting services listed him as a four-star long snapper, which is a big clue that his snap consistency and reliability project well. In the 2024 season, Youngstown State listed him on the roster but had no player stats available for him, so the appeal is less box-score flash and more specialist value: local, well-trained, technically advanced, and built for the hidden-yardage grind that wins games.
