He is ranked 20th nationally among 2018 long snappers by Rubio Long Snapping.<\/p>\n<p>Hadley earned high praise from Rubio, a former three-year starter and standout long snapper at UCLA.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHadley was impressive at the Rubio Long Snapping camp in Chicago,\u201d Rubio wrote in his evaluation of Hadley in April. \u201cThe kid has improved as quickly as anyone I have ever had go through Rubio Long Snapping. Keep a very close eye on him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJack continues to improve and showed tremendous skill at the Rubio Long Snapping camp in New Jersey,\u201d Rubio wrote in May. \u201cPhysically ready for college. Snap is smooth and effortless.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hadley hopes to have a big junior year at Donovan Catholic, a prestigious private school in Toms River, New\u00a0Jersey. A three-sport letterman in football, track and baseball, he rarely comes off the field. He plays center on offense, defensive tackle on defense and long snapper on special teams.<\/p>\n<p>Much of Hadley\u2019s success can be attributed to his relentless work ethic and increased strength. Since the start of high school in 2014, his bench press has improved from 165 to 275, his squat from 315 to 430 and his dead lift from 335 to 455.<\/p>\n<p>Hadley is also a standout in the classroom with a 4.2 grade-point average. He plans to pursue a degree in Kinesiology and\/or Sports Medicine in college with hopes of joining his older brother in a Chiropractic business.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy goal as a football player is to consistently strive to do what is best for not only me, but also for my teammates,\u201d Hadley wrote in his personal message to college coaches. \u201cI treat my coaches and teammates with the same respect I treat my own family members.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Since enrolling with NSR in late June, Hadley has received lots of attention from college coaches. A huge Ohio State fan, he would love to play for the Buckeyes, but is open to schools on all levels.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cComing up through a Catholic football program, I feel I have been shaped into a young man who has outstanding traits to offer a collegiate program,\u201d Hadley wrote. \u201cI am not afraid to step up and take a leadership role and have done so throughout my athletic career.\u201d<\/p>\n<h5>You only get one chance at the recruiting process, don&#8217;t waste it!
