GMan 3,569 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 you people need to get a vhsl rule book .the ball can not be caught by a lineman down field tipped or not this is not the NFL its high school football. VHSL does not make the rules...the NFHS makes the rules. Found this for you... Question: Can an offensive lineman EVER catch a forward pass? Answer: Yes, once a forward pass is tipped/touched by the defense, then all players become eligible. http://homepages.cae.wisc.edu/~dwilson/rfsc/intro/johnson.shtml Scroll down to the 7th question/answer...

bgwahoo 14 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 people just need to get over the call. either way graham won the game and that play had no factor of graham winning the game. graham was the better team and thats why they won. if people want to talk about something that almost affected the game, talk about the horrible time management during the last 2 min. but im sure tazewell people will say that it doesnt go against vhsl rules.

Rhschamps04 15 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 I think it's more about people acting like they know the rules without actually looking them up.... We are going to say this one more time GO LOOK IT UP A TIPPED PASS CAN BE CAUGHT BY ANYONE. Once that pass is tipped the defender and knock the WR and give him no chance to catch it and it will not be called. Once the pass is tipped it is a free ball for everyone.

Once that pass is tipped the defender and knock the WR and give him no chance to catch it and it will not be called. Once the pass is tipped it is a free ball for everyone. I believe you need to clarify "tipped". A ineligible offensive player can only catch a pass after it has been tipped by someone from the defense. Your statement, "Once the pass is tipped it is a free ball for everyone" is really false. The tipped pass is a free ball for everyone only after it is tipped by someone from the defense. Rule 7-5 Art.13 -- An ineligible A player has illegally touched a forward pass if he bats, muffs, or catches a legal forward pass, unless the pass has FIRST been touched by B. A = offense B = defense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1inStripes 933 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 Also, I saw earlier in the thread asking if a lineman reported as an eligible. That has no bearing on NFHS rules. Anyone wearing an ineligible number in HS cannot receive a forward pass unless it has been touched by the defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Moore31 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 The tipped pass wasn't the only thing that the coaches was mad over. grahams linebackers was cutting the fullback everytime he was leading the ball carrier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
