I'm looking for a document or a website where I can find a classification/summary of uncatchable forward passes (NCAA) (something like the well-known DPI or holdings classification summary). Do you know where I can download it or do you have something you would like to share ?
Thanks in advance

The NCAA rules book is your best bet. Are you looking for something specific (training material, video, reference, etc.) or are you looking for something more general?

Thank you for the answers. I was looking something more specific/different than the rulebook, for training purpose. Unfortunately I cannot find nothing on this topic. Nothing on Roger Redding too, about a clarification/summary of "uncatchable" calls. I would like something like NFL DPI classification ("arm bar-cut off-not playing the ball" and so on) or NCAA holdings classification ("bear hug-take down" etc).

Question Arm bar cut-off...

Was the arm bar cut-off technique what got flagged for DPI in the Ohio State - Miami game last season? Seems like BBR's photo that got posted in an earlier post displayed this very clearly.

This Friday Jim Blackwood, the football coordinator from the WAC will be showing us a video of what fouls look like (NCAA game films)... I'll report back on if there are videos available that would help display what to look for in the passing game.

uncatchable is pretty hard to train as it is really a judgment call. A ball may land 10 yards down field from a receiver but the official needs to judge if there was enough of a "mugging" to keep the receiver from getting to it or not. Within a couple yard it deserves a flag everytime IMHO, after that it is judgement.
