Someone told me the fake punt was not called by June Jones and
the punter did it on his own....can anyone verify if that is true?
Haven't heard that, but I doubt Szymanski, in his first game for SMU, would do that on his own. Maybe he has Jones' green light to go anytime if he sees something.
I dont know but Ive never seen a fake punt in which the punter is the one running the ball, considering how far he starts behind the line of scrimage. Usually if youre going to run on a fake punt you hike it to the up back, and if the punter gets it on a fake he will throw.
Except that 40 yd run morestead had last year
