No question that the ball is live and a down is in progress while the kick is still a kick. That's not what I asked.
The foul occurs when the ball becomes dead - the instant it becomes dead. Not before, not after. A live ball foul occurs during a down, a dead ball foul occurs after the down has ended. So, therein lies my question.
