REPLY: Not sure we're going to get it done in time for the corrections, but we are trying to revise the wording for the two known issues at least for next season:

1. This problem of clarifying that 10-4-6 and 10-4-7 only apply to running plays. It's implicit, but should probably be more explicitly stated.
2. The problem with 10-4-6 that limits it only to fouls "...by the opponents of the team in possession," when it should establish the basic spot for fouls by either team. That one was a flat-out goof on our part.

If you have any thoughts, please send along via e-mail.
