False read on the fake punt

there is a very interesting comment by Beamer in his post game transcript.

 

when asked about the fake punt that failed and lead to our field goal, he said it was a play they practice, and that on short yardage, the puner reads the outside cover guy.  If that player is set up to retreat and block for the return, the punter is supposed to go.

Beamer said the Michigan man outside gave a look like he was going to retreat, but then rushed the punter, and that fooled the punter into holding the ball and starting to take off.

Who made this heads up play?

Jake Ryan?

It looks like he shuffles sideways and when rushes upfield when he sees the punter running with the ball.

Ryan is the player on our defense who I'm most excited about next year. He was pretty damn good as a freshman this year, so I would imagine that the second-year bump could make him one of the top LBs in the B1G.

Skeptical about all the hype during the spring game. I'm glad the kid proved me wrong, he is hands down a play maker. Who else gets a tackle for a 25 yard loss on a run?

So hot.  Milk was a bad choice.

If you look at our two-deep, it shows that we actually were playing a number of freshmen.  Morgan, Ryan and Countess immediately come to mind, and all three of them are likely to make giant steps before the start of next season.  We also have some very highly rated guys coming in, like Ondre Pipkins, who many think can play right away.  If we have just a couple more guys from the incoming class play right away, we could have an even better defense next year, even with the loss of Martin, Van Bergen and Heininger.

In the morning he would read the Bible with another coach. Then, in the afternoon, he would go out and cheat kids who had probably saved up money from mowing lawns to buy those raffle tickets. That's Jim Tressel.
