I agree. This was absolutely incidental and a no call at any level.
I was just replying to the poster who said this was "at worse a common foul in NFHS." If you are going to call a foul here, which you shouldn't, but if you do; it cannot be a common foul per the rule. It must be at least intentional.
AndI can easily see some of my colleagues at the HS level calling this intentional because they are taking the elbow rule and POE too literally.
I think there will need to be some further clarification to the rule moving forward.
