One of our guys went to an officials camp in Saginaw where they were being taught to use the *foul tip* in the event a defender last touches the ball in the front court and may be legally recovered by the offense in the back court.
Is this a national epidemic encouraged by many camps?
The thought, I am told, is to show the coaches that the tip was seen, and to keep the coaches quiet.
What, then, does it mean when the official
does not show the foul tip?[*]Does it mean the defense *absolutely*
did not touch the ball?[*]Does it mean the official
did not see the *tip*?
Bad idea!!!
