Onside Kick Call?

Was that the correct call? I know that LSU hit the ball first, but is the recover team allowed to hit a player before 10 yards before somebody touches the ball?

they can hit the player whenever they want, but you cant touch the ball before it goes 10 yards or the receiving team touches it first

LSU didn't hit the ball first. Our player got hit before the ball got to him. That's kick catch interference.

Unfortunately yes. If the ball touches the ground, anyone is fair game. LSU needed to have at least two blockers up front and let the ball go 10 yards. Then an LSU player has a better chance to recover the kick. Our guy tried to recover the ball before it went ten yards. If he had waited, the ball would've touched the UNC player that hit him. Then it would be illegal touching, LSU ball.
