As APG points out it's not official guidance but, as I said, criteria given to me by those higher on the food chain as to what we should look for. IMO, the clip you posted was an F1 at the most. I can also see where it could have been called a common foul since it was a case of a not-so-big player encountering a bigger player. I can't see it as an F2 given the description of the rule (a personal foul that involves contact with an opponent that is not only excessive, but also severe or extreme while the ball is live).
Excessive, yeah. Severe/extreme, nah.

Intent has nothing to do with the F1 rule, which is why NCAA changed the name from "intentional" to "flagrant 1" in the first place. The first line of the NCAA rule reads: "A flagrant 1 personal foul is a personal foul that is deemed excessive in nature and/or unnecessary, but is not based solely on the severity of the act." Even in NFHS it says an IF "may or may not be premeditated."
