Flagrant vs. Intentional

I've always liked the NFHS term Intentional over NCAA Flagrant 1. In this case, "intentional" is much easier for people (players, coaches, fans) to understand than "flagrant."
  • Flagrant - (of something considered wrong or immoral) conspicuously or obviously offensive
  • Intentional - done on purpose; deliberate

Base on the English language, this foul looks a lot more intentional than flagrant, and would make more sense to the masses if described as such.
