I think that's pretty smart. 90% of the time the opposing team will burn it if they think the right personnel isn't on the field.It was a ploy to get us to burn a timeout. They would have burned one if we didn’t.

If I were the coach I'd think about doing that on some plays especially if you are up and have timeouts that you don't need in the 2nd or 4th quarter.
Not sure about that, but I’m still trying to figure out the “Not in an obvious kick formation” penalty we got on the punt that went down to the 5 or 6 yard line, wth is that??? Isn’t that the exact same as a quick kick?? It’s “not an obvious punt formation”, but last I checked still perfectly legal!
If you are not in a "true punt formation" then you have to have 5 members of the line with number between 50 and 79. You can have more, but they are not eligible to be a receiver or go downfield on a pass. In the old days if your snapper had a number such as 20 because he was also a receiver, you would have to have a pullover jersey for him to snap the ball. If you quick-kick you usually use the starting center to snap the ball.I'm so confused about that too. We used to have Tyler Bray kick punts from a standard offensive formation under Dooley. There was never a problem then.
