Honestly I do not know what to say to this. All officials are not taught the same things for multiple reasons. Usually you are instructed not to turn around but mark the ball. And a Head Linesman should know where to put the ball like clearly short or clearly beyond the line. And when you can on a long run start on a line. Other than that, where someone decides what their foot means or stands for is different to each individual on some level. Some officials use their front foot while others you the spot in between their foot. No standard that everyone uses no matter what. The problem that I have with this video was the fact he looked behind him at all. He had a spot and some reason looked behind him. He should know the spot, but then again this is the SEC.

Peace
