Agree. The whistle was very late, and there was no apparent intent to injure.

YMMV

PF Unnecessary roughness is a judgement call and likely here. Ejection personally, I hope not.

SPIKEING the ball is an UNC foul, deliberately SPIKING a player is a big notch higher. Would that action be acceptable in a Wrestling Match?

I think that exact move is worth 3 points in greco-roman wrestling

Yes, it is, but football is not wrestling, even though wrestling skills could transfer to football tackling techniques. I think that the defensive coordinator (or position coach) of the player needs to remind him that he should not use wrestling moves in a football game.

The only way I'm considering ejection is if the kid is spiked on his head. Otherwise, it's 15 and we move on.

I've seen it penalized. I've seen it not penalized. Thankfully I can count on one hand the number of times I've seen that kind of tackle in a high school game in 16 seasons.
