I was just surprised by WooPigSooie's posting in the other discussion where he said that he had been told in his rules meeting "that NO MATTER what the defender is doing (shuffling the feet to keep pace with the defender, etc), if the offensive player does an act (and they usually use the lowering the shoulder example) to create separation, it should be called an offesive foul."
The key is the displacement, not the lowering of the shoulder, correct?
