It’s been a few years since I’ve called games, but I’m wondering if something has changed on reporting fouls. I’ve noticed an increasing number of officials don’t move to the reporting area when...

NCAA pass interference

Doesn’t pass interference require the offended player to be an eligible receiver? I haven’t called games in many years (and never NCAA), but I thought that was a requisite. OSU game Thursday night...

I agree with Rich's point that a "do over" in this situation makes logical sense, but the problem is the myriad of what ifs that come in to play. The rule was written the way it was to provide a...

I know it’s been that way for years. I was just making sure it hadn’t changed since the last time I worked ASA. I think what bugged me is the umpire stated “only one base on an overthrow” when I...

Had a situation that just made me laugh in a game I was playing in last week, but does go to show how much confusion still surrounds the IFF rule.
