College football team letting a fan call plays as ‘Offensive Coordinator of the Game’

The University of Akron has announced a unique initiative for the current college football season. The institution will permit a fan to act as the Offensive Coordinator of the Game. In this specific role, the selected fan will be allowed to help script the team's first drive during the home opener. This unusual arrangement gives a supporter direct involvement in the strategic play-calling process for the opening sequence of the game.
