"Guarding" and "closely guarding" are both defined in the rule book. I don't have a clue what "actively guarding" means, so I can't possibly answer your question. That's what I've been saying. There is
NO definition for "actively guarding" under the rules, and there
never has been a definition for "actively guarding" under the rules that I've ever heard of. If somebody, like Texas, is using a concept called "actively guarding", then they're making up their own local criteria, not anything that the FED has ever issued.
Note that I'm also not saying that I disagree with the way that I
think the Texas people are calling the play.
