I'm just calling 'em like I see 'em.

I am not telling you anything you saw. All I am doing is explaining what you saw and what I have experienced. Any official that has worked basketball more than a year knows this. But I also find it interesting that you have not told us the conversation that was had to tell us exactly what was said between officials and the procedures that are commonly practiced.
Ask this question on the Basketball Boards. Do not at all take my word for it. Tell all the other experienced officials over there what they do not know. I will stay completely out of the discussion and let everyone else share their point of view. Make sure you describe the play in detail, because I am sure someone saw the game over there. We tend to watch a lot of NCAA games and discuss all kind of plays. I am sure someone saw the play and can tell you the officials that were involved.
So if you baseball only umpires know better than us, ask folks that only work basketball and see what they think.
Peace
