That coach yells at you to "call it both ways". We all know you should ignore him, but in this case, he has a point.

Frankly, what's the reasoning here? An off the ball foul is a foul only if the shot taken at that time goes in?

I think that's a real hard sell. Me - I call the fouls I see.
I had an NCAA ref tell me that if there isn't ad/disad...there is no foul. Unless it was hard/unsportsmanlike...

Just a thought!
