I'm not NCAA, but this was brought up in the ASA NUS I went to. They are working on moving PU from the standard holding zone and on your play as you have agreed it would have been a good place to be. On your second question you would have wanted to be 90 degrees from the tag....I like being in the normal holding zone, creature of habit, but as I make myslef get out there I see that I can see swipe tags up the line better from there. 90 degrees from the plate (normal holding zone) is the best if there is a play directly at the plate, meaning the tag is at the feet and you are judging if the feet touched prior to the tag or the tag happened first....but if F2 is up the line some and tags the runner anywhere else you have a better view of the tag instead of trying to look through the runners body to see it, and you can still see the feet coming into the base.
