Basically, they're going to make plays like this one illegal. In fact, in NCAA this one would have two fouls on the play... one for KCI, and one for blocking before the ball goes 10 yards. In FED, this is currently not KCI. |
I strongly disagree that you'd have KCI on this play - there are no receiving players anywhere near the ball where it lands. You're not going to call KCI on a normal kick if a kicking team member blocks a receiving team member that is 5-7 yards from where the ball is coming down - you would not have that here either. You would obviously have blocking before the ball goes 10 yards though.
