Utah prep long snapper Jesse Hooper verbally commits to Wyoming football

LARAMIE — Wyoming football cycled through long snappers in 2017, using three players at the position at different times.

If things work out for Jesse Hooper, that position could be taken care of for the next four years.

"I know talking with (special teams coach AJ) Cooper and (head coach Craig) Bohl, they’re expecting me to come in and pull my weight," Hooper said. "I totally understand, and I’ll be doing that."

Hooper, a long snapper out of West Jordan, Utah, verbally committed to Wyoming on Thursday.

"(Laramie) reminds me of Utah a lot, actually, and I love my home state," Hooper said.
