Rudock as a holder on FGs?
Could just be something Harbaugh threw in there to mess with the BTN guys, but this would add a very interesting element to FGs and XPs that hasn't been here in a long time.
After obsessively rewinding and looking for something, anything from the BTN practice footage, I noticed this.
Jake Rudock as a holder on FGs. Kenny Allen was the holder last year IIRC. There was a shot of Kenny Allen holding for Andrew David kicking.
If Michigan has a QB holding on field goals, that brings in a legit passing threat for a potential fake. Just something I thought was interesting that I'd share.

Actually, this obviously means Rudock has won. Only winners get the opportunity to take special teams snaps...
August 20th, 2015 at 5:42 PM ^
One other thing no one has seemed to mention is that the back up QB in the NFL is always the holder, and since Harbaugh just came from the NFL, could this be sign that Shane won the QB competition and Rudock is the no. 2 QB!

But don't you see that it could also mean NOT that...?!
Maybe.

A lot of NFL teams use the punter as the holder.

Rudock is our punter? Man, that Aussie kid must suck.

It's one of those for sure. Well unless it's something else. Something sinister. Something dare I say....EVIL?!!

I was also looking for equipment changes. I noticed Ty Isaac and Derrick Green are sporting visors now as well as Karan Higdon.

Don't know if you are cold hearted enough for it but the money is pretty good.

I used to think he was a drug dealer because he'd leave for 2 weeks at a time and come back with some major money...didn't know people actually flew around the country behind disasters assessing the damage for insurance companies. WD would KILL IT at that job.

It's just one screen shot. Probably doesn't mean anything.
But rarely was the staring QB the holder for FG's under Bo, Mo and Lloyd.

Brian Greise famously continued to hold for PATs and FGs during the 1997 season.

To me the most interesting thing was that McCray was practicing. I thought he was hurt and out for a while but apparently he is practicing. Woo-hoo.
Oh and Canteen actually playing at cb.

It looked like Mike McCray followed senior walk-on and Biomolecular Science major Dan Liesman in the linebacker drill that started with Joe Bolden and Desmond Morgan.
Didn't Dan Liesman get a lot of playing time in the spring game?
