I'm not going to argue any further for or against it being a legal block above or illegal block below.
We've detailed the conditions of what makes such a block legal or not. We've reminded all that you have to see the whole block and not part of it. We have listed a guideline as to what to think about if you have doubts. You pick the one that you agree with (NF Officials manual vs NCAA/Redding guide).
Now it's up to the official to decide in a split second to flag it or to pass on it.
I will say that GBLs observation that is was clearly at the shoulder pad level level makes me wonder what film clip he was looking at. I stand by my initial reaction to watching the play and a BBW because as I see it it, the contact was just below the waist.
