This constant represents the NCAA's maximum short axis length corresponding to the circumference of a football and is defined by relationship between diameter and circumference to to be no greater than approximately `3.382` inches.1
Remember: `"Circumference" = pi * "Diameter" = pi * 2 * b = pi * 2 * c =>`
`b_"max" = c_"max" ="Circumference"_"max"/(2*pi)`
Since we can approximate the football with an ellipsoid, the circumference through the plane of the `"axis"_1' and `"axis"_2' is related to `b` or `c` as: `C = pi * (2 * b)`
