NFHS; 2-35 advises, "RFP signifies that the ball may be put in play by a snap or free kick......, so once the ball is snapped or free kicked (after an RFP) the ball is "live"

The foul occurs when the ball becomes dead - the instant it becomes dead. Not before, not after. A live ball foul occurs during a down, a dead ball foul occurs after the down has ended. So, therein lies my question. |

If it was dead ball foul, there would only be one penalty option.
A similar situation exists in reverse if the kicking team violates the back 5 yd restraining lin, pop up kicks, or overloads. It is not a foul until the ball is kicked but it results in killing the play and a DBF The 5 yard penalty on FKOOB can be tacked on in the case where R elects to take the spot where the ball went out. |

I think some snap infractions are saved from being in that category by the ball's being ruled retroactively never to have become live. |
