knapplc Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Center: 1) Snapper - This guy gets his hands on the ball on every play. His job is simple: to get the football from the grass (or turf) into the hands of the QB without causing a fumble. On shotgun plays, the center has to deliver the ball on target and at a waist-high level as to give the QB time to find his receivers. As a HuskerBoard center, the poster should either start many, many topics because he "touches the ball first." When posting from a "shotgun" format (well after a topic is started), he should give the starter of a topic a nice straightforward answer/comment as to further the point stated. 2) Blocking ability - On any type of screen play, the center needs to get off of the line and help create a "mini-wedge" for the receiver. At the same time, he has to make sure he doesn't go past the line of scrimmage before the screen goes into effect! I would say the ideal HuskerBoard center likes to help out the arguments of posters and keeps himself restrained - meaning he doesn't go way off base with his comments. 3) Intelligence - In many football games you may see the center pointing out defensive alignments to the QB and his line mates before he gets into snapping position. The center has to anticipate what the defense is doing and relay it to his team. The football knowledge of this poster should be quite vast, and his ability to point out the strengths/weaknesses of other's posts should be quickly ascertained. 4) Underrated - This poster does a lot in helping HuskerBoard but doesn't always get recognized for their help.
