I was watching the UNC Greensboro-Ga. Southen women's game on TV last Saturday.

Late in the game, the trail official was counting 10 seconds in the back court against the press-breaking team. Because this was a women's game with no 10 in the BC, he was corrected by his partners and the team was given the ball back. The coaches and announcers couldn't believe it.

I've been there before: if it's Tuesday it must be women's rules...and I thought the incident was funny at first.

But then, the guy continued to count in the back court on the next two possessions when he was the trail! Thankfully, he didn't have the chance to call another one.

Granted, this isn't top 10 hoops, but these are 2 pretty good lower level D-1 teams.

I'll bet his assignor either chewed him a new one or demoted him
SID,
I hate that!
I don't think I've ever gotten over two in the backcourt.
Also, I have found myself getting to about 1-1/2 counts while dribbling in front court.
Every now and then I try to crawl into those volleyball post holes.
