I am sorry but I am having a very difficult time believeing that Frost asked Lightbourn to onside kick the ball. He is just trying cover for his kicker’s horrible blunder which will be highlighted in ESPN’s not so top 10 plays. Asking Lightbourn to execute an onside kick is like asking a seven year old to dunk a basketball.
Come on - there is zero chance that the play was anything except onside kick. the entire left side of the line was attacking to a certain area and at least one if not two were offside.
