The ref who made the initial call moved up the side and the "helping" ref worked the inbounds. These were Division 1 referees and from what I understand, it's pretty tough to get the call for those games, so they must be pretty good.

Lemme say it again very slowly for you, WCB:
Basketball officials can never over rule another basketball official! Ever!
NCAA rule 2-2-3-
"No official shall have authority to set aside or question decisions made by other official(s) within the limits of their respective duties"
NCAA rule 2-2-4-
"One official may assist another official by providing additional information related to a made decision".
In the situation that you laid out, the officials followed the procedure contained in the appropriate NCAA rules quoted above. One official did NOT over rule another official, as YOU stated earlier. They aren't allowed to, under the rules that I cited.
You were wrong. You still are wrong. If you continue to insist on saying that a basketball official over ruled another basketball official in that situation, you will be wrong again. And if you post your resume again, as you seem to like to do every 2 or 3 posts or so, that won't help you at all either and you will be just as wrong. And you can call me names or make smart remarks as often as you like too, which seems to be another posting tactic that you like to use, and that still won't change the fact that you were wrong.
