Chuck -

I just got back from lunch and read both your posts. You sure are right that on BR-145 of the 2002 NCAA Rules book it says "*There is no stop clock signal before an out-of-bounds violation." I guess that emphasizes the point of my original post, which is,

make sure you understand your supervisors expectations. If the Collegiate Commissioners Association manual which,

"...has been adopted by the NCAA Men's Basketball rules committees as the official basketball officials manual for collegiate officiating," says one thing and the NCAA rules book says something that is condratictory (sp?) then an official should find out what his/her supervisor wants.

Please note too, that the CCA Manual to which I was refering is the Men's 3-person manual. I'm not sure if the women's side uses the CCA Manual or if there is a similar book for NCAA women's mechanics. So in all fairness, I should have stated that in my original post.

Thanks Chuck!

Guys, there is a CCA Manual for both. The Men's has one and the Women's has one. The Men's says to use stop clock for violations, but it is optional for out of bounds calls. Women's does not want you to use it at all for out of bounds foul. They are both very different. They both have their own mechanics and way of doing things. That is why you do not see D1 officials going back and forth from one to the other.

Peace
