Although it's rarely needed, usually if you do need the second foul it is for something nasty - a late hit, facemask, or a shove,...

This would be enforced the same as high school. If the defense declined the penalty, the play stands and it's a saftey. If they accept the penalty, it will be A's ball, repeat the down and penalize...

While you are 100% in your explaination of the sideline warning vs. illegal participation, It's convenience rather than confusion. The sideline warning is seen as an effective way to cure a host of...

If we had the same number of officials, ball boys and the same field conditions as the Big XII or Big 10 we could run at the same speed. I also think a coach who wants to run a hurry up, no huddle...

It's after the foul is considered. In your example, the runner may not have gotten the first down without the hold. Go back to the previous spot (NFL rules) and penalize from there and repeat 3rd...
