Answer here, or below.

Football paranoia predates game plans, computers, technological innovations and around-the-clock television coverage. Historians credit Gallaudet University, a university for the deaf, with inventing the huddle in the 1890s to prevent opponents from reading sign language. Now, coaches cover their mouths, in case opponents employ lip readers to watch telecasts.
