Did I miss something? Or was it too much Mountain Dew clouding my vision?
2. On our roughing the punter penalty (clearly deserved, IMHO)... who makes that call to go for the block? The player on his own? Does the coach tell them to "go for it"? I gotta believe it's all on the player in this case, but I don't know?
1. #66 on GSU shoved one of our guys to the ground after the ref had the ball in his hands and the play was dead.
2. In my experience it goes both ways, sometimes the coach calls it from the git go and other time specific players are allowed to make the call based on what they see with the formation.
From the movie THE PROGRAM
Regent Chairman: This is not a football vocational school. It's an institute for higher learning.
Coach Winters: Yeah, but when was the last time 80,000 people showed up to watch a kid do a damn chemistry experiment? Why don't you stick the bow-tie up your ass?
