Message to Bobby

Ball had already hit ground so no interference. That’s how that play is designed. Some on kick team go block out return team from getting to ball not even trying to get the ball themselves and they are notresponsible for the actual recovery others are after our hands team gets knocked away. Side note, they first attempted a kick left that Bobby called time out to see only to have them switch it up and out school him. The kick to left would not have been successful. Davis has done a great job fielding the kicks left this year. 2 for 2 in one game. The stupid fake punt was the worst special team decision in that game situation since. Bobby ran the Globe of Death kick return his first time around.
Thank you for your response. Evidently, I didn't know what Rausch didn't know. Now, both of us know.
The ball can hit the ground once and the receiver can still call fair catch which of course entitles him to catch the ball without interference but more than once, in this case a dribbler cannot be fair caught. I am pretty darn sure the receivers are taught to go get the ball once it is touched but instead waited for the ball to come to them which of course is an f-up.
That is what Rausch was doing, standing on the 44 yard line, waiting for the ball.
