In the cylinder is ONE of the determining factors. Another requirement of GT is downward flight. Billy pointed out that GT also requires a try for goal.
Since I can't tell from the video clip angle whether the ball is within the cylinder, I cited the upward motion of the ball at the time of player contact as the definitive reason that this couldn't be GT under NFHS/NCAA rules.
Now if one could be positive that the ball was withing the cylinder, then one could cite that.
