"Does not participate because the kick went to the other side of the field..."
THIS IS NOT "not participating". Not participating is usually - realizing he shouldn't have been out there and immediately (but after the snap) running off the field, AND causing no opposing player to react to him. It could also possibly be just standing there after the kick only if the opposing team did not react to him. Even if the play went away from him, if he was on the field and affect ANYTHING (causing the other team to line up against him, or causing any player to go around him) - that's participation. In both of these, the IP was pre-kick. I believe it would require an entry to the field AFTER the kick was made to make this a post-scrimmage-kick foul.
