2) Those that responded with flagrant are fine. I have no problem with their opinions, except for the one that said the kick should be an automatic flagrant and I disagree with that. Make it fit the situation and the intent of the rule which describes flagrant as 'of a violent or savage nature'. This was not violent or savage, imho.

[/B][/QUOTE]Uh, Dev, NCAA rule 4-23-3 does say that a kick is "fighting", and as such is flagrant. The language of that rule defines "fighting" as an attempt to kick an opponent and also further clarifies that whether the opponent is actually contacted with the attempted kick or not is irrelevant.
