I just read that article, and that paragraph was the one that jumped out at me, also. It would have been interesting to be a fly on the wall watching JT pound the table on behalf of two punt returners. Nice to know that the head coach's ideas on X's-and-O's can work out so well at times.

Do you walk Ruth to get to Gehrig?

Do you punt to Holmes to avoid Ginn?

I like the comparison. As stated in a previous thread, I see a lot of balls being punted out of bounds... that can have a disastrous affect on the bad guys defense as it did in the Okie State game.

what I would do is throw a 60 yard bomb on third down... as high as possible... to make sure a DB picks it off... that'll be a much better strategy regarding field position vs punting to either of them...

if it worked once, that would be the last time... the coach would tell em to drop it.

That would certainly necessitate Teddy's switch to CB, so he could start returning all those INTs like he did at Glenville :biggrin:

It's late and my brain is a bit tired, but what were all the ways opposing teams tried prevent Ginn from running one back?

There was the old kick out of bounds and put your speed guys out there, like Edwards. What else was tried?

Yeah they thought that rugby style kick would keep Teddy out of the endzone, damn they were wrong. This may also lead to teams goin for it on 4th down on more occasions. Also the one Teddy took back against scUM was incredible because every scUM player was in their correct lanes. Oddly enough.

I think his best one was against Wiscy. He slipped through about 6 guys at once and broke free. Unreal.

You can blow him up right after catching it, and he can still take it to the house. He nearly did so on the PR right before the PR TD... where he spun and stayed up, then almost spun around the last defender.
