Defensive line players used to put silicone spray or aerosol cooking oil on the front of their jerseys to stop O line getting a grip. Now outlawed. At the other end of the scale receivers used to use Stickum. Also outlawed.
This kind of thing was more common in the past I believe. Footballers would grease themselves with goose fat. My grandad would paint his cricket pads each game so it would damage the ball if the bowlers bowled at them.
Not even a joke. Traore did that after dislocating his shoulder from defenders trying to pull him back. He doesn’t need to now that people have discovered he’s not actually very good.

Expect your "greased pig" strat would get similar treatment from the no fun corporate types at the NCAA :-)
