Disregarding the rules.

My line is "Coach, I honestly wasn't looking there. I'm sure he won't mind if you ask him/her, though." Seems to work, and interestingly, they ususally forget about the play and don't ask anyway.

You can use these lines once, maybe twice, per game. I never sell out my partners, but you cannot defend or continually play dumb when coaches ask you to explain a partner's bad call. After a while, all you can do is let the coach vent. You don't want too much of that, either, so as JR suggested, I kept away from the benches and refused to even make eye contact with the coaches when my partners blew their whistle. I just rotated quickly and administered the penalties or got out of the way.

Good call, stan.

Rather than explain that both fouls needed to be assessed, followed by an alternating possession throw in, I let them try to sort it out.

Stan, that's the men's NCAA rule, but not the high school rule . . . .

That's not the HS rule? What IS the HS rule?!?

I've always been taught you go with one foul - a charge and a block can't exist at the same time (either the player had position or he/she didn't.)

Closest reference I have right now is 2.6A - R sees foul, U1 sees travel - both whistle - only one happened.

Hey Mark,
Take a look at 4.19.7 Situation C, and then apologize to Stan. 🙂

Thanks, Nevada and my apologies to Stan. I just wish I had this rule reference in my pocket earlier.

No apology necessary. Just remember the rule if, God forbid, you need to use it.
