Read again because that's not what he said. He said that there is not a jewelry rule in NCAA -- so they can wear jewelry. He didn't say that there was a no-jewelry rule.

I admit the copy given to me as an umpire is several years old but I don't see the unequivocal statement you mention.

Why the name calling?

Sorry. I agree that a fake take is a FED rule, not an NCAA rule and that if this were a fake tag, it would be OBS in FED. I agree that it's nothing in NCAA.

I agree with this. Also as I recall watching the video, it was a fake "field" not a fake tag so it would be nothing in either code.
