Distance Penalty Declined Enforcement Spot Question
For a loose-ball play, the basic spot is the previous spot. If "A" holds behind the basic spot on a loose-ball play, the ABO + 10 yards is applied (spot of the foul +10yards). The enforcement spot is now the ABO spot & 10 yards will be marked off from there.
If "B" refuses the "distance penalty", is the succeeding spot the basic spot or the ABO (enforcement spot)?
The rules aren't clear on this (unless I am missing something). I would think that since "B" refuses the distance penalty, they also give up the ABO enforcement spot and the succeeding spot will be the basic spot.
