First off, I dislike the phrase "live ball" when talking about a free kick that has gone 10 yards. When an untouched scrimmage kick goes downfield it is also a live ball, even though K cannot recover and advance (yes, I know they can never advance it). The same applies for a free kick that has not gone 10 yards.

Also, since coaches like to yell "it's a live ball," I would doubt K would just stand there and watch the ball.

In the case that it was just sitting there without anyone moving toward it, I would blow it dead once it is apparent no player is trying to possess it (maybe 1-2 seconds).
