Published:
Mason Arnold is the new starting long snapper for the Ohio State Buckeyes.
The former walk-on was thrust into starting action after Bradley Robinson suffered a knee injury against Iowa in Week 9. Robinson is considered one of the best long-snappers in the nation and was a semi-finalist for the Patrick Mannelly Award in 2021.
Arnold said that becoming the starting long snapper was “bittersweet” due to Robinson’s injury. Arnold praised the leadership of Robinson, talking about how the former starting LS has been helpful even while out with injury.
