This is what I found on targeting, "The rule in football means that discipline for players flagged for violations will mirror the penalty for fighting. If the foul occurs in the first half of a game, the player is ejected for the remainder of the game. If the foul occurs in the second half or overtime of a game, the player is ejected for the remainder of the game and the first half of the next contest." Seems like he should be able to play the whole bowl game.
Campbell on Hot Mic
- Thread starter JM4CY
- Start date
He does not. Since it was during the first half his 2 halves of football happened during the game.
lol I would not want to be one of those Oregon players on the receiving end of a pissed off, blood thirsty Isheem Young hit. RIP ducks
It's what I thought I heard from talking heads on another game later that night. I could be wrong and I hope your right. Some dude got ejected for the same type of play, not a malicious hit but the contact part of it. They talked about him not being eligible for the 1st half of their bowl game, not sure what half that happened in the game I was watching.
whom ever the tight end was moved immediately and pointed, on the last player who crossed over the neutral zone, I believe. Therefore someone in a set position moved even though he was not on the line or on same side. Why did that not count???????????
He shows complete composure 99% of the time. Refs like that. That is why he got the pass when he lost his mind....lol. but true.
Disagree. The te who was off the ball reacted to one of the jumps, when he was in a set position ,into the neutral zone. SOOOOOOO, it should of been a penalty on one team or the other.

Isn’t the fact the officials never threw a flag on Campbell telling enough though?
Those guys are always wanting to make sure you don’t show them up. They know they botched this one and they didn’t flag Campbell because of it. Because he absolutely deserved one.
Interesting. When Eustachy did it I was embarrassed and horrified. When Campbell did it, it seemed ok and right on.
referred many hs varsity basketball games. A whiner who complains alot during their games will get a technical, while a coach whom seldom complains gets a pass EVERYTIME for exactly the same response. Referees are human and really respect a coach who normally just coaches. If a normally reasonable coach reacts, my first thought as a ref was, oh ****, did we get this correct....lol.
He was in a two pt stance. Immediately stood straight up and pointed at player. This was before ball was snapped. The te went into a set position. He cannot move until ball is snapped or it should be a penalty on him.
did he have time to protect himself or clearly became a ball carrier (established himself as a runner)? If not then yes defenseless according to the rule book.
You can move out of a 2 pt stance. You can reset legally. If he stood straight up and pointed, not a presnap penalty. If moved as if he would to a snap, then it should’ve been offsides if the defensive player jumping is determined to cause it.
If you are in a two point stance you can move all you want presnap unless you are moving as you would on the snap. You can stand up and look to the sideline for a play. You can shift, go in motion, etc.
Thanks for reffing, to me that seems to be a thankless job.
