Kick catching interference - if he's signalled for a fair catch, is in the process of making the catch and K1 hits him, it's KCI.
That's a blanket statement that's simply not true. The ball is muffed into the air by R- he's still in the process of making a catch but most certainly CAN be contacted by K.
Based on
c it first's further description of the play it sounds like something you'd really have to see. If the ball just rolled forward in his arms I wouldn't allow the contact- if it popped in the air I would.
Would the foul really be "kick catching interference"?? Isn't K contacting R after the catch, thus the ball is dead?
