RGGeemer Intervention Needed

He may have signaled fair catch and then caught it at the 1. The byu player that us arguing with the ref at the end starts to make a signal like a fair catch. That's what made me think of that possibility

But who knows?

No. Adam Hine return TD called back vs Utah for a "holding" penalty is the worst

It’s obvious he kneeled it down in the endzone. So there’s no possible explanation for putting it on the 1. If you think

I watched it again, he wasn't doing the fair catch signal, but mimicking the

True or not, that’s a great point. I hadn’t thought about that and it would be the one thing that would make the call

I don't think you could call a fair catch on a kickoff back then, could you?

WhyaskY?

Sep 9, 7:43pm

You could when I payed in the 90’s. That’s as far back as I can tell you. The recent change was that a fair catch within

You could fair catch. It was just a dead ball where you caught it and not at the

Not only did the Officials blow the call, but they marked the ball at 3 yd. line

Pretty sure he must have signaled for a fair catch

If he did...which I dont think he did. It's also a penalty to run after the

If he called for a fair catch, why would he take a knee as well?
