Look at the first sentence of NCAA 9-1.
Let me know if you need me to read it to you.

Well get an IPad or some kind of smart phone and this will be easily available to you.
But for the record this is what 9-1 says:
All fouls in this section (unless noted) and any other acts of unnecessary roughness are personal fouls. For flagrant personal fouls mandating conference review, see Rule 9-6. The penalties for all personal fouls are as follows.
Not seeing anything that says this hit was unnecessary.
Here is what 9-1-12 says:
Contact Against an Opponent Out of the Play
ARTICLE 12.
a. No player shall tackle or run into a receiver when a forward pass to him obviously is not catchable. This is a personal foul and not pass interference.
b. No player shall run into or throw himself against an opponent obviously out of the play either before or after the ball is dead.
He was pretty much in the play.
And with all due respect I do not care what the NF Rules are as it relates to this call. It is not relevant as the game has different examples of contact or actions that are more specific than anything the NF puts out in their books.
