Mitchell Dietzel brings ready-made long-snapping stability to JMU
In the 2025 season at Eastern Michigan, Mitchell Dietzel played in all 12 games and earned Academic All-MAC honors, then arrived at James Madison as a likely Day 1 starter with two years of eligibility remaining. He’s a big-bodied specialist with legit snapper pedigree, and Kohl’s praised his size, consistency, and strong camp work, noting an average snap time of 0.66 seconds at a 2023 showcase. For JMU, he looks like a dependable, low-drama special-teams piece: not flashy, but the kind of steady fix teams love when field position matters.
