Misconceptions about HS Rules
I've put together a list of misconceptions about HS Rules. We hear these from fans and coaches. This might be a good start. I'd love to distribute this to coaches and fans.
If anyone has any others, please post them. Misconception 1 Two feet required inbounds for a catch. 2 Defense can be "offsides" and get back. 3 Uncatchable pass rules out interference. 4 Quarterback out of the pocket can ground the ball. 5 Restrictions on punt team players going downfield. 6 Missed FG goes back to line of scrimmage. 7 Automatic first down on face mask and personal foul. 8 Interference possible on all passes. 9 Loss of down on ineligible down field. 10 FG holder can throw a pass from the knee. (LSU) The Truth 1 Only one foot is required inbounds for a catch. 2 No one can enter the neutral zone and get back. 3 There is no "uncatchable" rule in high school football. 4 Intentional grounding is not related to the "pocket." 5 No restrictions on when punt team can go downfield. 6 Missed FG is treated like a punt. Goes to 20 if it enters the EZ. 7 Only automatics are roughing and defensive pass interference. 8 No interference if ball doesn't cross the line of scrimmage. 9 LOD only on illegal passes and illegal touching. 10 Holder must rise to continue to play. |
