this is similar to a recent thread. The call was right. But two or three minutes, are you kidding?

I also disagree with the though that the referee ought to make the call.
I think by rule, he DOES NOT have the authority to overrule, at least not in Fed, nor in NCAA. The situation posted above is covered in both casebooks, I think, and the specifics of how to handle it are covered. I don't believe there's any judgment involved once the "Blarge" has been signalled.
You are correct. I believe NCAA women's requires the 2 calling officials to decide one or the other, but under ncaam it's a double foul by rule...although it's kinda encouraged that one of the two officials give up the call.
