If you look just under and to the left of the FoxBox the moment the kick occurs, you can see the hold. It was clearly not during the return. Also, the flag gets nowhere near the foul and is thrown by the official at the GL pylon.

The hold was there, but I'm having some difficulty with how it was enforced, as well.
I agree with everything here.

The foul was clearly a hold while the ball was in flight.
