I just saw a play that I am sure is going to cause some discussion. Louisville v. Virginia, VA player has the ball, he hurdles the UL player and as he is falling he fumbles the ball. As the VA player falls to the ground he goes out of bounds with his feet and legs, however his upper body is still inbounds. He then becomes the first player to recover his own fumble. Since he was legally out of bounds is he eligible to recover his own fumble while still partially out of bounds?
Any clarification concerning this rule would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
