Here's the worst part of the story:
"Pinkney protested, but Harley had run it by the referees before the game to make sure it was legal."
Is there anyone on this board that is confused by this? This play is illegal. It is not a "trick play," it is unsportsmanlike behavior. Deception makes the defense think the snap is not imminent and is a USC on the Head Coach. And, yes, you shut the play down at the snap.
