The rule says "after it is clear the ball is thrown". There's some grey area there for sure. I've really tried to watch a lot of NCAA football this year and I've paid a lot of attention to hits on passers. I'm hoping to gauge my calls against what I see there and so far I feel like I'm doing a good job with my calls. I have some hits on the QB but they are pretty much immediately after the ball is gone. I also do a lot of communicating with defenders, especially telling those that lay off or pull by telling them "nice job of letting up" and warning those who I think may be a bit late. Any helmet to helmet stuff gets flagged immediately.
