I am curious as to the reasoning behind the following situation:

Louisville player loses his shoe. E.C. goes on offense but does not score. Louisville now has the ball and Louisville player shows his shoeless foot to the official. Official allows play to continue.

Should the official stop play?

Obviously, I am not an offical but was wondering if play should have been stopped to allow the player to put on his shoe.

thanks,

No, play should not have been stopped.
