Okay. Good to know. I knew it had to be in the trunk, I didn't know the trunk didn't start until you got to the shoulder blades.

It's defined in the definition section of the book as between the shoulders and below the helmet/above the waist.

It's also a pet peeve of mine to see a blindside, legal block called as an IBB. It gets coaches screaming at me to make the same call as others

All of these blocks are legal. Even the one right at the end of the play. There's a possible push in the back but it's after the runner is down. No foul.

All blocks are legal. The one block that looks the most suspect the defender cut in front of the blocker. I have got nothing.

Peace
