A10 throws legal forward pass to A88 (complete);
A88 runs for about 10-yds after catching pass to B 30-yd line;

Crew marched off 10-yd penalty from PS and replayed the down 2nd and 17-yds to go.

We discussed basic spot, since the roll out preceeded the pass, the run was part of a loose ball play, the basic spot would be the previous spot.

The foul would not be assessed from the spot of the foul to make it 2nd and 21-yds to go.

Anybody want to weigh in on this one?
All but one principle. This is the "one." The basic spot is the previous spot, but the penalty is enforced from the spot of the foul if behind the basic spot in a running or loose ball play. Read up on the all-but-one in rule 10.
