Are you saying that there have been two different NFHS rulings on a play like this since last year? I suppose I should say I'm not surprised. Regardless, Referee Magazine has it wrong.
However, there is definitely a rules problem in regard to what should happen when there is a foul on the opponent when a run ends in the end zone and the final result of the play is neither a TB or a Safety.
NFHS should put something in rule 10 and add a case book example to cover this.
My own two cents from past local discussions and on various internet sites, is enforce the penalty for this case from the goal line since the run ended behind the goal line.
This case being as described in the first post
