Our state mechanic sends the U back if the FG try is below the 15 yard line, and then the LJ if the try is farther out then the 15. I haven't heard an official reason for this decision, but personally I think this allows the LJ to get to the pylon (or at least to the goal line) in the event there is a busted kick attempt fake.

On a similar note, we had a team a few years ago that didn't have a punter so the coach informed us before the game that he would try a field goal on all 4th down attempts regardless of where he was on the field. Seeing the absurdity of sending the LJ back for a 50 yeard attempt, we only sent him under the bars if they tried an attempt inside the 40.
