Right, only one foot is needed to re-established on-court position, but the other foot, of course, must not be touching the floor OOB. This sounds easy enough, but in a fast-paced game situation it is easy to get caught off-guard and blow the whistle thinking it's a violation. Because it "looks" somehow wrong and wierd, one's immediate reaction may be that it WAS wrong. It caught me twice this year, much to my chagrin. What did I do? Immediately approached the table, called it an inadvertent whistle, and gave it back to the team that I thought had violated. Got no argument either time.
