If you run into a wall and drop the ball because of it, it's not a catch. If you catch the ball and fumble the exchange to your throwing hand, it's still a catch. It's extremely black and white clear cut and defined.

This is a terrible hill to decide to die on. It's nothing like the NFL.

Also again, the video shows a completely different version of your reality of a good 3 seconds. Same link, this time the video "Tyler Callihan exits with a broken left forearm"... the most he could have had the ball in his hand was ~1.5 seconds. The ball goes into his glove just a fraction before 0:05 and the ball comes out a fraction after it ticks to 0:06. 

Not that it matters, because there's no time element involved. There's no two steps or "baseball move". He ran into the wall right after touching the ball. The act of running into the wall made him drop the ball. That's not a catch.

Take the horrible injury out of it. Catch the ball cleanly, immediately smash into the wall and lose the ball, it's not a catch every time. EVERY TIME

Does it suck for us and especially him? Sure does
