I racked my brain for a couple seconds, and think this may have been in the Mountain West Conference? A Game involving Brigham YOung University (BYU).
It was BYU @ New Mexico on January 26, 2004 and the official was Lonnie Dixon. His behavior was shameful. He lied on the court about the incident, lied to the supervisor after the game, lied during the conference investigation, and finally was proven to have no integrity when a local TV station had a tape of him blowing the whistle. We talked about this last year on the forum.
Here's a link: http://www.byucougars.com/Filing.jsp?ID=0000004692
Personally, I believe that he should have apologized, not for the mistaken whistle, but for his poor behavior after that.
The conference should have dropped him this year. How can any coach take what he says as truthful? I sure wouldn't want him as a partner on my game. I can't trust him.


PS Why is he bringing this up now? It was almost a year ago, let it go.
