Calling ‘The Catch’

Reposting this based on Twitter love, here’s the audio of Gary Moeller’s headset calling the 4 & 1 play vs. Notre Dame in 1991 that resulted in Desmond Howard’s incredible catch.  This was originally posted by the U-M athletic department as part of the Under the Lights game program and collateral.  Love it.


For a detailed breakdown of this audio, check out my interview with Moeller where we walked through this…slowly…and he explained behind-the-scenes what all this stuff means, and what was going on. This post also includes a bonus: audio from Lou Holtz and his memories of the play via my man John Kryk.
