Reggie Fish
You know, I never blamed Fish. That's one hundred percent Hooter. Fish had not played a meaningful snap all year (ever really) and Hootie puts him in to field a punt in a crucial part of the game. That's bad management, and honestly, I could be wrong, but I bet I could count on one hand how many punts Fish fielded before then.
Hooter did the same shite with LSU. We were in control of the game, Jones and McFadden were laying pipe on Les, 4 strait passes and a loss.
Nutt's ego was so big that he took huge mind boggling (stupid) risks, so that in case it panned out, everyone would talk about how much of a "genius" he is. And he was addicted to it. "I called that play Chuck"
That's the curse (and sickness) of a true narcissist, you do things like not game plan for Wisky, or not make halftime adjustments, or not trust overwhelming odds, because you think you know better.
So I give Fish some slack; he had no business playing in that game or D1 for that matter.

Nutt was fascinating to watch in action. Much like a fiery car wreck is fascinating. You have to wonder what went on in his head at times.
"Hmm, Matt Jones just went for 75 yards untouched on that read option play... I'd better not call that again this game!"
"We're trailing by 2 TDs late in the game... no one will suspect me to call three straight half back dives!"
"Late in the game, we just need to run the clock out, and they can't stop our running game. Its the perfect time to call a quadruple reverse throwback pass from the center to our 8th string RB who doesn't even play for the scout team!"

That’s not true at all. Fish had 16 punt returns that season, twice as many as anyone else on the team.
