However, therein lies the problem!

What seems to be missing is this was a NFHS high school game played in Pennsylvania under NFHS Rules using PIAA 6-man mechaincs. NFHS ruling on a simultanious catch would apply as would PIAA 6-Man mechanics. PIAA 6-Man mechanics has the HL staying on the LOS and the LJ drifting downfield. (See attached link.)

As such, my comments are, and were, applicable to this video.
Comments regarding CCA Mechanics, NCAA rules, and/or NFL kicking balls would not be applicable! Making comments or evaluations on anything other than the particular rules or mechanics the crew in the video are utilizing, would be incorrect, false, foolhardy and a bit askew.

But thank you Dale, for providing your perception of what FBullock was thinking.

Where I am from, for NFHS game played using 6 or 7 man mechanics we use the CCA manual. Not being from Pa. I was not aware that they had their own 6 man mechanics. If that is what the Pa. book says and you are working in Pa. then that is what you do. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
