MEMPHIS, Tenn. – On fourth-and-2 near midfield with three minutes left in Saturday's game between the University of Memphis and Ole Miss, Tigers coach Mike Norvell had a decision to make.
Leading by five points, Norvell's options were to punt the ball with hopes of pinning the Rebels inside the 10-yard line or to go for it. Norvell quickly asked new defensive coordinator Adam Fuller his opinion.
"He said `Go win it'," Norvell said.
Emboldened by Fuller's enthusiastic response, Norvell called for a shovel pass, which quarterback Brady White deftly tossed to running back Kenneth Gainwell.
