Be prepared for a lot of grief if you call this a IP. While not being 100% legal it's close enough imho to be overlooked. It's like doing 70 mph on a road where 55mph is the "legal" limit.

ASA & FED - IP without question. How Alex could say he sees nothing wrong just boggles my mind.

NCAA - I agree with mcrowder - they want it illegal in the book but don't want it called. The offensive team will complain about it though . . .

In most places you get ticketed for doing 15 over the speed limit!

Strange. Illegal, yes, but the move looks amateurish, like something you'd see (and probably ignore) in a rec league. And regardless of the foot question, she doesn't appear to be exerting the kind of bodily effort required to get speed on the ball.

A D1 pitcher who doesn't drag but instead takes a half step toward the plate with the pivot foot and doesn't even appear to dig in?
