actually think that 100% should be a penalty. I mean who could/would fault an opposing player for running over to make sure the "faking" player was ok and that potentially could change the game (ie a long run back).
OK guys, you know the plan

Here is a link to an article where the coach discusses it

Personally Itliked to see a coach that understands that at the end of the day he is coaching boys and it is a game.

Quote:
“We were just having a little bit of fun to be honest with you,” Anderson told For The Win. “When you scare a goat, it faints. It was a joke.”

Anderson said the player, Booker Mays, practiced playing dead on the play all week and "did his part to a T." In the formation, Mays was an ineligible receiver and therefore couldn't run a route and catch a pass, so there wasn't much he could do on the play except for act like a decoy and try to confuse the defense.

“It really wasn’t going to be a critical part of the play, successful or not,” Anderson told FTW. “It was just a distraction and mainly to have a good time with the kids. They’ve been through five head coaches in five years. Any chance we can laugh with them and have a good time with them I think will help us grow as a team."
