re: Not calling a timeout to set up a play?

I liked McMahon’s idea of not letting Kentucky set its defense. Wright lost the ball as he was going up. McMahon could have called timeout, drawn up the play just like that and Wright still could have lost the ball. Sometimes, a plan comes down to execution and if the execution is flawed, it sometimes doesn’t matter how good the plan was.

Wright came up with his own plan on the fly. They won the game. Right now, that’s all that matters.
