    I find this quite humorous. IMO, it's much ado about nothing, but apparently in the broadcast world it is an egregious violation of confidence. Squirm, Brent, squirm. :lol:

    Interesting, that Keith Jackson, Bob Davie and Herbie all recognized that Musburger had goofed up and shouldn't have said it. Also as a former Coach Davie was surprised that Booty told them, but recognized he should keep his mouth shut on the air.

    But I do have say it is much ado about nothing, I mean the defense knows it's going one on one with a reciever, I would assume that they assume that the offense recognizes it as well. Not to mention I think the reciever is supposed to recognize the coverage as well if he's good.
