The NCAA version would have required more NFHS changes to and/or "an exception" to make it fit. The NFHS does not like the word "exception!"
If you buy into the concept that "Team Possession" changes from K to R the moment the scrimmage kick crosses the ENZ, then the current wording of NFHS PSK fits into the NFHS rules.
PSK is an exception to the rules of enforcement. It is an exception to the Offsetting fouls rule.
Not true, if you buy into the concept that "Team Possession" changes from K to R the moment the scrimmage kick crosses the ENZ, then existing Rules 10-2-1b and 10-2-1c fit nicely into the PSK package!
That's the way it is for NCAA and that's the way the NF should have written it up.
If the NFHS had written it up this way the IMHO "Team possession would have to change a the snap and we would open up another can of worms. I don't think we need to go there.
With the retention of the double foul mentality, the NF seems to have forgot that this rule is supposed to be an exception.
Using NFHS philosphy, it is not an exception. It is rather a new enforcment spot, and also "Team Possession" changes when the ball crosses the ENZ. Certainly you are not suggesting we eliminate the double foul mentatilty! If we did that it would effect all change of possession plays and I don't think we would want to go there!
All I see is trouble because of rekicks and I for one hate kicks to begin with.
Re-Kicks are generally a result of a "Double foul".
In theory PSK should eliminate rekicks as the double foul aspect is removed once "R" declines any "K" foul.
If there is ever a chance for a injury or a foul missed because players are spread all over the field it will come during a kick play.
I could not agree with you more!!!
Please NF, rewrite this before the first KO of 2003. I am big advocate of PSK but not as they have it written at this point.
Sorry Theisey, but I must respectfully disagree!
