The HUNH and flopping are both within the rules and also against the spirit of the rules.
How is HUNH against the "spirit of the rules?"

It takes advantage of an allowance designed for 2 minute drills and applies it to the whole game as a base offense. I'm not a fan of it, but also don't think it should be banned. The game will adjust, even if that means defensive players lying on the field to catch their breath when they can't sub out.
The NCAA is not going to ban or penalize injuries, and they have no way of knowing when a real injury occurs. Flopping is here to stay so long as coaches play a style that prevents tired players from subbing.

quote:i believe its more accurate to say flopping is against the ethics of the rules and hunh is against the spirit of the game, ie the game is the interaction between the play called on offense and the defensive play called to counter. what makes football great is that it operates on multiple levels. a stated goal of the hunh is to prevent ds from getting in plays, or at least the play the want. both are currently within the rules as they stand
