Sub penalty High school

You are being generous to the defense to call IS. If the defense tried to sub at the last second and sent a player on and immediately the sub tried to leave, it's not IS. It IP, however, I would call the IS because it's 5 yards and IP is 15.

B is not under the same restrictions as A in regards to formations and being between the numbers after the RFP to the snap. They are also not gaining much of an advantage subbing at the last second

In the original post, it is stated he is running off the field so it is apparent he is making an effort to leave. Some wings will even step in if it can put him behind and out of sight and thus avoid the foul entirely.

Yes, it is IS.

It's not IP unless he remains on the field and participates in the play.

Agree. I'm sometimes surprised by how challenging the concept of 'participation' seems to be for some officials.

Thanks, guys. I was starting to question my sanity there a moment.

Crisis averted.

YEP!! And, if I am a wing official and he is really running hard to get OOB I will give him the benefit of the doubt if he is within a couple yards of the sideline.
