re: Nfl has banned the hip drop tackle. Is the ncaa next?

NFL has taken anything from the should up as a targeting, in a practical sense.

Now they've taken out this style which had gained in favor due to the above.

We will keep moving down the body of the ball carrier. Teams will devise ways to neutralize and eliminate knees. This will be the new target area.

And we will see a host of new prominent knee injuries.

At this point, maybe it's best to go the way of rugby and maybe just go to shells and let them modify style of play that way.
