Agreed, and my understanding (perhaps the rules have changed since last year) 
was that any elbow to the head above shoulder level - intentional or not - was 
at least a Flagrant I. If intentional, a Flagrant II.

Vandy’s elbow to Leon was way up (the Vandy player had been jumping). 
Intentional or not, how is this not a foul?
