[QUOTE="ohioillini77, post: 1572812, member: 747320"] I don't like the rule, but it is not just for the protection of the player who is hit. Players are taught to "see what you hit", keep your head up. Attacking with the crown of the head is dangerous for the tackler, a vulnerable position for spinal cord injuries. Hopefully enforcement, however poorly applied at times, will prevent some serious injuries to tacklers. [/QUOTE]
