Thanks Mike Goodwin and Mark T. DeNucci, Sr. for your posts. I've made my local interpreter aware of my concerns. I'll let everybody know if I get a response.
Also, Mark T. DeNucci, Sr., thank you for not giving us the complete back story of this situation going all the way back to 1891 ("I personally knew Jimmy Naismith, Blah, Blah, Blah, Yada, Yada, Yada ...").
Actually, the only history to this Play is the adoption of the definition Airborne Shooter which by definition created a retroactive PCF situation.
Both pre and post Airborne Shooter A1's PF is a CF. The difference being the penalty for A1's pre-Airborne Shooter would be FTs being Awarded to the Team B Player that was fouled by A1 if Team B was in the Bonus.
The real history lesson is why was the Airborne Shooter rule adopted, but that is a history lesson for another time. Back to the Big 12 Football Championship Game. GO BAYLOR!!
MTD, Sr.

Did you not notice that I thanked you for not offering us this long and boring ancient times hand-me-down oral history around the campfire back story.
I take back my "Thank you" and offer up a "Shut up" instead.
People must really hate it when you corner them at a cocktail party, with lots of "Excuse me, I have to go to the bathroom (and hide)".
