All the goofball fanboys and fangirls come out of hibernation. We got us a UT fan here that's still whining about the Baylor game last year where the mean ol' officials screwed her team. Yup, it's a conspiracy, I tell ya.
I certainly hope your judgment is better on the court JR. UT did not get screwed in the Baylor game. UT benefitted from the call. And I certainly am not whining about it. At 59 I do appreciate being called a goofball fangirl or fanboy.

I am not an official but I work with video and digital images and I do know where the cameras were located in the arena.

My hope is that the officials who read this thread will be aware of the inaccuracy of pictures that come from certain angles.

My questions involved the rule and I ask again how the three point line rule is stated:
Is it "touching the line" or "over the line"
and
Does a three point 'jump shot' where the feet leave the court behind the line but the shot is released above the line count as a three or a two?

I hope you pay better attention to the calls and less time being defensive about your position than you did in this totally off the wall reply to my post.
