We obviously disagree - but in your post you pointed out Prince did it and  
Callahan before. I remember IA State doing it in the recent past.  Charlie Weis 
did it last night in pretty much the same situation with the  same outcome. 
Not most coaches, but maybe we are the trendsetters!!  (Although I hate lumping 
NU with Notre Dame!!!! in anything)  I'm just  saying it is not the 
debacle\without merit call alot of people on this list  say it was. It was not what 
lost the game.  I think POTENTIAL  benefit usually outweigh the risk - but that 
is a matter of  semantics!!!
