Except for these issues:
2013 NFHS Rules Book - Rules 10-2-1a, b, and c
Which all state ONLY LIVE BALL FOULS CAN BE OFFSET

Since the only actual foul that occurred was a dead ball foul for Encroachment it would be difficult to offset anything.

But, as they say in Kentucky, Never let the Rules Book get in the way of a good ball game.

Again, nothing occurred on this play other than the L screwed the pooch, get over it, admit your error to the coaches, and move on!!!

Why some find it the necessity to fabricate new rules to cover their ass is beyond me...
