Middle School Goal-Line Stand - ESPN Video - ESPN

Obviously dependent on what level you're working...and assuming he wasn't off-sides/encroaching, which it looks like but wasn't called..

NFHS and NCAA, assuming no encroachment/offside then nothing. It's legal to dive over an opponent.

Nothing, why?

What are you wanting us to have?

Odd question, honestly. No offense.

I know there's nothing in FED, wanted to know if there were any cracks at NCAA or NFL level, although I didn't think so either.

There are a LOT of guys I've seen in discussions on this play on a few different site including the link with the video that assume this is hurdling.

Good stuff.

The head & shoulders of the diving player are so far out in front of the lower part of his body, his feet so far behind, it's hard to see how anyone could make such a mistake unless they were screwed up on the definition of hurdling; even understanding the ordinary dictionary meaning should be enough to distinguish a dive like that from a hurdle.
