I've got news for you. Every high school long snapper I've ever seen has to lift the ball in order to snap it. Perhaps college snappers are stronger and don't have to, but I see it happen every Friday night.
Take a look the next time you work.

There is no doubt that on most occasions in high school that the deep snapper lifts the ball before snapping it back. It is still an illegal snap. However, the only time that our crew will flag this violation is if the defense forces the issue, as was the case in the original post.
