The C has the best angle on this play as they are not straight-lined or have no players in front of him to see the contact.

Because the C should be shifting to the drive from his area when the pass was kicked out to his primary. The lead would be left with what happened in the lane when the C had to cover the drive. I guess that, since there was no one on the shooter, he could safely stay with the passer, but if the shooter were defended, it would be hard to cover both and he has the best look at the drive.
