Mike, at the National UIC Clinic in OKC, Walt Sparks addressed this in the breakout session on obstruction. Frankly, I believe he misspoke several times, and many people left the session totally confused. In the session I attended, we challenged one play, and he reconsidered and reversed himself; but that wasn't the first breakout.
I wouldn't be surprised if Bob Mauger heard it (or thought he heard it) there; but you and I know from Mobile that isn't the rule. A subsequent play must be on a different runner; this play is a continuing play on the same runner.

Thanks, Steve.
I don't remember hearing that. I was out of snyc with the rest of the UICs on the breakout schedule, so I probably missed Walter make that statement.
