Cool

an Umpire with 34 years of experience here----
read the rules in the Federation rule book as it
pertains to the "snapper".
Basically, as long as he does nothing which
simulates the act of "snapping" no flags should fly !
If you watch all the centers in college and pros--
they all "break the rules" as concerns pushing the
ball forward a bit before snapping it back-
especially on long snaps for punts, etc.
A wise official will not flag that as long as
it does not actually simulate the snap itself !
