Very tough to see. Left heel on the line and Luckey appears to be straightlined on that foot. C could have helped but apparently agreed with Luckey or did not see the heel.

Tough play, can't fault the official either way imo.

Secondary defenders near the RA are supposed to be officiated from the feet up. If you start at the feet, it is obvious he is on then above the RA.

Answering the original question in the OP - yes, it appears the defender's left heel was on the RA line.

Even if it wasn't, the video seems to reveal A1's head and shoulders were past B1's torso which per NFHS rule means the foul here would be a block on B1. Also, the contact on B1 was to the outside of his shoulder - not the torso.

No, that isn't what that means. A1 getting head and shoulders past B1 only means that B1 can no longer be moving laterally (assuming B1 could otherwise be moving laterally up to that point).

Also not relevant. Stationary B1's position doesn't become illegal just because A1 is able to divert enough to only get B1's shoulder. If stationary B1 had legal position, B1 can't lose it unless B1 himself does something to lose it.

Maybe the defender was preparing to absorb imminent impact, but I don’t think so. Certainly looked like he rotated his shoulder/torso counterclockwise and sought contact at the last instant. So I have a straight up block.

L seemed to end up straightlined. I think he may have had to guess here. Bill Self had a beef.

Without the RA, I have a straight charge. With the RA, it appears he is over the RA which he cannot be in or over to take a charge. I get his call, but the C or T should have come into help if they saw it. They must have not seen it, so the call stood.

Again hard to do after all those years of looking at the torso and not the feet so closely.

Peace
