Thanks.
I'll also say that from T's standpoint, it might be a tough call even in HS/NCAA rules. the defneder has his feet set before the offensive player goes airborne, but is still straightening his body after the plyer goes airborne. If you see that motion, you might be fooled into calling a block.
