Last year the rule for running out of bounds was a T, this year it's now a violation. I see players all the time on TV (mostly NCAA, not NBA) violating this rule and not being called.
Is this rule not being enforced as "not that important", or are these officials just blind.
Do I have this rule wrong?
Do you need to use this as a preventive officiating rule? By just telling these players to "stay in bounds" and then not calling it?
Dose offensive advantage need to be emphasized on this violation? When the player runs out, dose the planters foot need to be inches from the line to call this, but then let it go if there is room to run through?
I've called it 3 or 4 times this season, to last years none. Last year I felt that a "T" was too harsh of a penalty, or is it the same way with everyone else still as a violation?
What's everyone calling?
