Hope this not Germans but I have to say I have never seen this before.

I was the nose guard, the center picked up the ball, and said, " this isn't the right ball!" handed it to the QB, and he took off. He got maybe 5 yards. The kid in the video sold it a bit better.

1) The snap must be a quick and continuous motion. This was not quick, which is half the reason the defense is caught off-guard. Illegal snap.<div>
</div><div>2) The quarterback is either moving forward at the snap, or has not been set for one full second. Illegal motion or shift.</div><div>
</div><div>3) Under NFHS rules, the quarterback is legally a lineman. The ball must touch the ground or a back before it may touch an offensive lineman for the snap to be legal. Illegal snap (again). This game is under NCAA rules, though.</div><div>
</div><div>4) On top of all that, this is considered unsportsmanlike conduct and is a 15-yard penalty from the previous spot. (Lots of people will argue this, but that is what the rules interpreters have stated. Regardless, this play isn't even technically legal.)</div>
