Hard call to make, but something for referees to look at. Here's the video. It's from the D1 1st round match between Baton Rouge and Parkway. BR won 2-0, so the call doesn't impact the result. The referees consulted each other and ultimately called it a goal kick after the appeals from Parkway players that it hit the field goal post. I can't make out the trajectory, but I am biased.

From the video (40+ yards away) it looks like a corner kick to me. Keeper tries to deflect ball up and over goal, ball looks to clear goal post then unexpectedly comes back down into play at much more rapid rate than normal gravity. Only conclusion I can come up with is it hit the field goal post and bounced back down.
It looks like it came off defending team before keeper got a hand to it anyways so not sure where the goal kick call came from.

Yeah.. The clear action that takes place is corner kick by BR (white), header by defender (red), and I can't tell if Keeper gets a hand on it or not. But yeah the ball hits a post or posts and then falls for BR player (white).
It's unfortunate how close the posts are to each other, but I imagine this happens everywhere where soccer is played on football fields.

My first instinct watching it once through was that it was off the keeper's hand and then off the football crossbar. Corner kick. I slowed it down and didn't see anything to change my mind.
Also, I want to point out that soccer fields don't have to be 120 yards long. IMO teams (if they're ever redoing the lines on their field) should move the soccer goals up 2-3 yards from the back of the football end zone. That way you can avoid any of these weird situations.

These unfortunate deflections occur a lot, and they're super hard to judge but it's a byproduct of sharing the turf fields. Looks like a corner kick to BRMHS due to a block by the goalie that hit the crossbar of the football goal post.
