HuskerfaninOkieland Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 The rule is good when it's applied correctly. The problem I see is it's to subjective. It's too broad of a rule with no real clear indicators on what is and isn't "targeting." We've seen other plays similar to SJBs today that weren't called targeting and others that should have been targeting, not called. Interpretation is the name of the game with this rule and it's the interpretation that sucks. The rule needs to be adjusted with a clearer outline on what is and isn't a penalty I would say the issue with the rule is the entire part about being ejected automatically for targeting. Based on the rules right now, that was targeting and it's an ejection. The problem is, all hits like that should now be ejections. In reality, it should be like it was before where you get ejected for a malicious, intentional hit upstairs. What they have done is take the interpreation OUT of the hands of the refs. Now they have no choice but to eject. And that is an issue. You could say they've taken the interpretation out of the hands of the refs but to me it seems like they've put more emphasis on the interpretation of the rule into the hands of the refs based on how the rule is written. Would another official have called that targeting? But I do agree, hits like SJBs are way more common and according to the rule, they should all be ejections. They need to place more emphasis on the malicious and intentional aspects of the rule and not just broad brush the entire rule Quote Link to comment
