I say yes by definition. Wasn't an attempt at a dirty hit I don't think, Gallman just lowered his head at the right (wrong) time

All necessary components of targeting were present
Oct 15, 2016, 7:15 PM
|
|
1) Forcible contact to head/neck of ball carrier 2) With the crown of defender's helmet.

He led with the crown of his helmet, by Gallman lowered his level at the last minute. In real time I didn't think it was, but when you slow it down it's obvious why he ended up needing to be helped off the field. Look at the pic one of the above posters included and you will see how low Wayne was. Really tough to call that a penalty.

ABSOLUTELY...AND NOT ONE STINKING WORD ABOUT IT...
Oct 15, 2016, 7:33 PM

...Effectively. Yes, Griese or Levy, I don't know which one, gave a pretty lame attempt at justifying the hit. But the helmet-2-helmet contact was totally obvious. In slow motion, it appeared that Gallman momentarily lost consciousness and the ball just came loose. The #8 that hit him should have been EJECTED, and this is not crying baby shoes about the hit, considering what Boulware has been through over the last few weeks.
The ACC should review this play and STILL SUSPEND that idiot for the targeting call.

targeting. The refs obviously missed it. To their (the refs') defense, Gallman was in a pile of NC State players from almost every angle and so that might be the reason the refs couldn't see it.

No - it was NOT targeting. It was an excellent hit by the NCSU player. Gallman was a runner, and was not defenseless, and from every angle I could see, NCSU did not lead with the crown of the helmet to the neck / shoulder area. Maybe I missed it, but that's the way I saw it. Just a dadgum great hit IMO. It's called football.

leading with the crown of his helmet. The only thing that hit Gallman was the crown of his helmet.

It doesn't have to hit the head or neck area. The rule prohibits targeting and making forcible contact against an opponent with the crown (top) of the helmet. It does not matter where the contact is on the ball carrier.
Targeting and Making Forcible Contact With the Crown of the Helmet
ARTICLE 3. No player shall target and make forcible contact against an opponent with the crown (top) of his helmet. When in question, it is a foul. (Rule 9-6) (A.R. 9-1-3-I)

Why do you have to be called for targeting to initiate contact?

Gallman braced for the hit, that is not the same as initiating contact. Seems to me the player running in for a tackle with head down and arms at his side couldn't tell what or who he was initiating contact with, just that he was going to hit something.

It was very close...I think I lean towards no, but the thing that frustrates me is that the refs threw a targeting call on Boulware last week on something that was CLEARLY not a targeting penalty...but our RB was knocked unconscious in mid-air due to a hit and there was no flag thrown this week.
I think head-to-head penalties need to be taken seriously and reviewed at pretty much any opportunity. The fact that not only was this ignored by the refs, but then also the announcers, is terrible for the game.

That has nothing to do with rule 9-1-3:

ARTICLE 3. No player shall target and make forcible contact against an opponent with the crown (top) of his helmet. When in question, it is a foul. (Rule 9-6) (A.R. 9-1-3-I)

Not the part of the rule that applies here. How do so many

chime in with no clue as to the rule - even though it has been posted here 10 times.
It is a multi-definition rule & the first definition is:
You can't lead with the crown of your helmet.
Period.
No further stipulations.
If you lead with the crown of your helmet - it is targeting and it is a penalty.
Period.

they submitted it and the ACC said it wasn't targeting.
According to the NCAA rule book, it was.
Targeting and Initiating Contact With the Crown of the Helmet (Rule 9-1-3)
No player shall target and initiate contact against an opponent with the crown (top) of his helmet. When in question, it is a foul.

I'd say no because he wasn't a defenseless player.

It's because Gallman initiated the contact.
Had he kept his head up there wouldn't have been any helmet to helmet contact.
