Bobby Gaston Point Quotations

Well, we emphasize that you call it when it occurs at the point of attack and if it has a bearing on the play. And even then, it's up to the official to use his discretion as to whether it's a fender-bender or a train wreck. If you arm-clamp or take down the defender, that's what we call a train wreck.

The rule said 'He must intentionally use his helmet to spear,' and we felt like it's hard to find an official to realize whether or not the players intentionally used it or whether he was just making a hit, ... So that will be a rule and a point of emphasis, not only in our conference, but nationally.
