Pass hits Goal Post

[Texas Aggie]

This isn't that difficult. The NCAA rules, and I would suspect Fed is similar, declares that a kick striking a goal post, but going through the uprights, is an exception to the rule that would make it OOB on other plays, such as one involving a pass that hits it.

I haven't had a pass hit the post, but I've had a kid run with the ball after a kick hit it. We shut it down pretty quickly and only needed a very quick explanation.

We have fields here where the goal post padding is protruding into the field. If a player or ball contacts that padding, they are out of bounds. Otherwise, we are justing trying to split hairs to prove the absurd.
