Besides, look at it this way: Even if it wasn't specifically covered in the rule book we have NFHS Rule 2-3 (The referee shall make decisions on any points not specifically covered in the rules).

If we had to invoke that in the OP, are we really going to disallow a FG on a try released prior to a whistle we shouldn't have blown in the first place?
