Did you even know those were the rules of holding? Ive seen 2 people clearly state that grabbing the jersey is "not holding" Sorry,don't get my interpretation of CFB rules from movies,unwritten (bama)rules,or message board Yea Hoos. Ive actually seen this form of holding called and enforced but not nearly enough. Clearly you don't know much about football.

My knowledge of "holding" comes from playing and starting at 3 different spots on the offensive line at the collegiate level, and several years coaching the offensive line at the high school level.

You?



As I stated in a previous post, "holding" has been largely re-defined by the game. There's not a team in the country that teaches "open palm" run blocking. That's not a thing.

Funny enough, I've attended more than one coaching clinic at UGA. You know what Mark Richt and his coaches teach? I'll give you a hint - it's not "open palm" blocking.
