question? only because I have literally seen this during this season. Missed FG say from the 10 yd. line. referee moved ball to the 20 yd line to start the opposing teams next drive.  Missed FG from the 10 yd. line ball left at the 10 yd. line to start the opposing teams next drive. what is correct? I literally saw this in back to back games this year.

The proper call is 1st and 10 0n the 20.  Always a touchback in high school football if ball breaks plane of goal line

Question of enforcement for you, defense is called for cutting the fullback is the enforcement from the spot of the call or end of the run?

depends on the type of play.  A running play, the enforcement spot is the end on the run.  A loose ball play (before or during a pass or a kick), the enforcement spot is the previous spot.

Looking for clarification, explain what you mean by a crack back block.

When an offensive player lines up wide or in the slot, starts moving back to the middle of the field and blindsides a defensive player. In the NFL if this block is made below the waist it is illegal. It can be made above the waist legally as long as the blocker doesn't lead with his helmet. How does high school officiate this.

This is not to be confused with a chop block.

As long as the potential blocker leads with his hands in front of him and the contact with the blockee is above the waist and either on the front or the side of the blocker, than it is a legal block. Anything else could be an illegal blindside block.

    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
    • speaking of board members how can a man get arrested 12 days ago and still be head coaching a team in TC school system? looks like your right about the tc board members. I bet it would be different if they had a kid on the team
