VMI’s Steady Snap Specialist: Austin Fletcher Looks Built for Reliability
In the 2024 season, Austin Fletcher stepped in after VMI’s starter went down, handled long-snapping duties every game, and earned All-SoCon Freshman and Phil Steele FCS Freshman All-American recognition. His value is the unglamorous kind coaches love: dependable snaps, special-teams toughness, and a willingness to contribute in the dirty work, highlighted by tackles against Bucknell and Western Carolina and a forced fumble against the Catamounts. For a team needing a calm, durable long snapper with proven freshman-year composure and upside, he fits the bill.
