Last night I was trailing around the right side on an option play and a receiver just flattens a potential tackler with a hit between the shoulder blades. Threw my flag about 10 yards - right at the offender's feet. I saw the entire sequence.

Assistant coach starts screaming that the blocked player turned into the IBB. I just wondered if this is something they teach coaches -- it's never an illegal hit, it's always the other player's fault.
