At first, I thought he meant if the kid had sliden he might have gotten in there. I replied "Guess we'll never know...".
He replied, "No, its a rule right?"

Exactly, had the same question the other day in a HS tournament. Guy makes great play sliding under the tag by F3 on a bad throw.
F2 asks, "can he slide at first?"
Never cease to be amazed and realize as we all know, coaches don't teach the fundamentals anymore.
