Legal, but highly unlikely that the ball can be contacted without a foul on either the snapper for a snap infraction or the defender encroaching.

It depends.. We talking NCAA or NF?

I'm sure it has been kicked about on this board but with the search function disabled, I can't easily find the thread.
