So, TexBlue or anyone else, would you have had any objection to the parent taking the recording to the UIC or TD to get the call corrected?

#1 The UIC doesn't have the authority to change this call;
#2 I don't care who has what, it is a judgment call;
#3 The UIC doesn't have the authority to change this call;
#4 Instant replay is not available at all angles of all games, therefore, is not a source of reference.
#5 The UIC doesn't have the authority to change this call;
#6 As the UIC, I don't have the authority to change this call.

etc., etc., etc.

Now we can hear all the idiots who want us to ignore the rule book for the sake of the players. They must believe it is possible as many coaches teach their players to circumvent the rules on a regular basis.

BTW, did I happen to mention the UIC doesn't have the authority to change this call?
