What guy? It didn’t look like a great call?

Coaches vote!!!!!

From what I see 24 makes illegal contact before 85 ever touches oob. I have it paused and 85’s left foot is in the air and the illegal contact has already occurred. No the rule is participate. Those things are part of but not limited too participating

I disagree and I’ve watched is 10 times 24”cuts” off the route and has contact before 85 ever touches oob

Maybe changed on 1960 then but a eligible stays eligible throughout the down doesn’t matter if they go out of bounds or not. If they go out of bounds on their own and then return it’s illegal participation but they are still eligible so what you said is 100% wrong

It was a cutoff and clear foul

There’s no difference then what happened except They didn’t go for 2 when they should of. They had 2 to it night if worked. Better then what is gonna happen What if they would of declined the foul?

Should of went for 2 again

Why would they be off the field? It just took time as the game grew from 3 yards and a cloud a dust to what we see today. Mechanics changed and they realized if you are off the field and not moving as much it made it better to officiate. I’ve seen video of Bo Jackson and Hershel Walker jumping over the wing because the ran out in the way and fell down

It seems to me what sometimes happens is if the O line catches/tries to catch the ball the crew will go with illegal touching and just skip past IG. Meaning of the ineligible never tried to catch it they would have IG but once they catch it they go with illegal touch. Has anyone ever seen a game where they went illegal touch decline and then IG? I’ve never seen that even though I think there are many times you could have both

Lol. Then we can agree to disagree. The guy literally takes 2 steps forward before the snap. I think this is a foul anywhere on the field. I know it’s a foul in this situation advantage/disadvantage he mistimed the snap and yes should be called

He gains an advantage going forward before the snap. When they ran It the second time on the other end of the field he didn’t start early. This one should be a foul. Don’t make it close no reason the start early. For those that say the nose got blown up. He sure did, since they had 3 people in a line pushing him. I didn’t need to see it frame by frame to see he started forward before the snap

I’m interested to hear what the experts think? Is this a hurdle or not?

Video???

I disagree with you. He’s going forward before the snap and it’s really not close

10/31/14 was terrible. It was freezing with 40-50 mph winds. Several games in the region were moved to Saturday. At merriville the goal post looked as if they were gonna blow over. Couldn’t throw or kick. It was a miserable night

Illegal motion

Was his arm hit? Was he trying to throw it further to someone else but had people hanging on him or was he under pressure and just threw it to an area with no eligibles?

This comes up every year but what I see is that more and more people are controlling what they can control. They can control if they continue to officiate or not. The game is losing more and more officials for 100’s of reasons. This Terrible system shouldn’t be one of the main ones. We have too many smart people in place not to fix this. No one in their right mind would sit down and come up with this system if they were starting from scratch. Fix the problem. You can’t say it’s always been done like this or if you don’t like it don’t apply because we won’t sustain the numbers and quality if we continue. What’s the point of trying to get better if it’s not recognized? Why put in extra work if it doesn’t pay off. That doesn’t make sense. We know it’s a popularity contest and the officials that only work football are at a great disadvantage. We have so many tools in place to make officiating in Indiana stand out in a positive way. Let’s figure out how to make that happen

Or not

NFHS uses the term popup kick as a kick that is driven into the ground and bounces up. For years the term was used to describe a “sky” kick that never touches the ground as described in the OP. I’m not sure how the rules makers decided what to call it but I know the term can be confusing for many. When I hear pop up kick I think of the one up in air not the one described in the rule book. I see I’m not alone

Yes. It’s a live ball foul and can be declined
