I checked and you're right. Previously Fed had defined "a kick" only by inference as the product of the "kicks classified as to origin", while NCAA had had a separate definition of "kicking the ball" (as above for Fed's of "a kick" currently), which phrase was then used in their definitions of the types of kicks. This is why NFHS now has to have their language "a legal kick" in the various places they use it for referring to the status of a loose ball.
