That may be because Coach Bryan isn't looking for a rule revision. His position, which has thusfar not been opposed, is that his "idea" complies with current rules. His reaction seems a response to try and negate all those who have unilaterally decided it to be in violation of the current code.

There is significant speculation that the extent of opposition to this strategy will, or at least should, expand or revise the current rule, or official interpretations, to address this innovation, which has yet to be officially declared illegal. Until the Rule makers speak, everything is just speculation and opinion, and we can only hope the discussion keeps a civil tone.
