I wonder what it feels like when a school is the victim of an action on the field and the NCAA jumps in a few days later with a solution.

We'll likely never know.

"If the 12th defender was attempting to exit but was still on the field at the snap and had no influence on the play, then the normal substitution penalty would be enforced with no clock adjustment.”

So if the substituted player "slowly" walks off the field and isn't part of the play is the next issue to address.

Obviously Ohio State has enough power and influence to force the change immediately. We would be told to shut up and accept that we were outcoached.

Because this is pretty cut and dry. The fake injury loophole is a little more sensitive because all it will take is someone who actually is hurt and gets penalized to start a firestorm.

Without a doubt.

Lucky for us, we didn't have to wait on the ncaa, Kirby apologized.****************

I think if you a player gets up and to his position and then randomly drops like we see if should be ignored and the play continues

This is why the fake injury stunts are so egregious. With the frequency Ole Miss does it, they are going to force NCAA action on it. They could do it once per game and be ok. But they do it closer to once per offensive possession. But by forcing action, they are creating a real safety concern where players who really are injured are going to worry about getting penalized for it. It’s embarrassing.
