Fed 7-5 "additional" yards

I MIGHT call it in a lower level game if it was multiple times by a single player and he ignores verbal instructions that we would provide. It's as rare as the 1 point safety allowed for in the book. Kind of like Sasquatch.

What I wonder about is whether this is supposed to supersede 9-9-1. It looks like the rules makers were saying this is specific rule coverage, so that no matter how unfair you think a player's pass interference was, this 15+15 is the most you can give, not an equitable penalty.

Rarer. I've NEVER heard of this being enforced, at any level, by any official. I've actually seen the 1-point safety, by Texas A&M about 4 years ago.
