Hurricanes Safety Seeks Out a Block Instead of What Appeared to be an Easy Tackle

SJ - September 18, 2021

Miami Hurricanes safety Gurvan Hall Jr. made an all-time mental mistake against Michigan State on Saturday. As he appeared to be lining up a tackle Hall suddenly turns to embrace a block rather than make the tackle.

I don't know what happened to Hall on this play other than he had a brain fart. How else do you explain this? I would think a "business decision" would have avoided all contact.

If I was the head coach I'd pull him out of the game immediately to have him checked for a head injury. If he passed that he'd be on the bench the rest of the day.

The body craves contact. You can't seek out a block over making a tackle. Someone needs to remind him that he plays at The U. This kind of play is how you get embarrassed at home by Michigan State.
