If you judge the defender's intentions were to cause injury, it would have to be a flagrant foul however, you kow that tape would be reviewed over and over.

Has anyone ever seen/heard of this stitch?
I think that's a huge reach that I would hope you never want to make. A flagrant foul becuase somebody lands on your foot? I don't think so.
