Hello fellas! Been a while since I been here and I miss the discussions. If you recall, I like to stir things up (makes for interesting debates, reading, and learning?) I have a few old topics I want to reopen because they were never clearly resolved (in my view).
Topic #1: Tackling the pitchman on a run option without the ball--legal or illegal or no call? Topic #2: A88 attempting to receive a pass runs into B21 who is unaware of the pass and standing between A88 and the ball--legal or illegal or no call? Topic #3: 4th down in sudden death overtime. Team A attempts a field goal and misses. Player B1 makes slight contact with the kicker but not enough to displace the kicker. The kicker intentionally spins and falls--legal or illegal or no call? _________________________ Derock "But I'm Only a Youth Official So What Do I Know."

#3 - That's easy. THere's no such thing as sudden death in NFHS or NCAA.

Quote:
I think everyone who frequently posts here said the same thing. You can't tackle a person who isn't a runner or pretending to be a runner. A pitchman is not pretending to be a runner. He is POTENTIALLY a runner, but potentially being a runner isn't the criteria. Quote:
Difficult to make a call without actually seeing the play. Per rule, P.I. occurs when a player from either team interferes with an opponent's opportunity to move toward, bat, or catch a pass. P.I does NOT occur when contact is unavoidable and both players are making a SIMULTANEOUS, bona fide attempt to move toward, catch, or bat the pass. Quote:
Here is my interp of the play using NFHS rules. Slight contact that does not displace the kicker should be ignored. The acting job should be ignored. It is SOLEY up to the R to determine if the contact displaced the kicker and/or if there was an acting job. [Edited by mikesears on May 12th, 2003 at 07:46 AM]
