Idaho State's WR Coach Likes The Hustle

It's a variant of the "barking dog," except without the considerable shame. If you replay the video six or seven times, you'll be able to tear your eyes away from the kid at the bottom long enough to determine the touchdown came on a swanky reverse pass. The scorer is 5-7 Idaho State receiver/tailback/returner/smurf Kenyon Blue, and the thrower is actually the quarterback, who actually lined up in the slot. But it's Isaiah Burel, the guy at the bottom, who mesmerized the defense with his rad dance moves, setting up a teammate for a touchdown on a play.

And the thing is, Burel is wide open! Look at him. He's managed to insinuate himself five yards downfield and the corner to his side is eight yards off, probably because he doesn't want to get plastered all over SportsCenter by a double move when Blue breaks out the moonwalk and instantly immortalizes Anonymous Idaho State Opponent Cornerback. This is a brilliant strategy for any receiver toiling at the lower levels of college football: terrify your opponent into thinking he could be the funniest joke on YouTube for the rest of his life by turning your route into a So You Think You Can Dance audition tape. The possibilities are endless.

Question: how does Burel's official bio not mention his sleight of leg? Sure, he was "unstoppable against Sacramento State," but this is way bigger, man. You're Idaho State: this should be your Heisman push.
