Question from a "non-college" official.
If you don't call the T on the backboard slap, don't you set yourself up for it happening again later in the game and having a similar situation to the first blarge no call? As in someone slaps the backboard similarly and you "have to" call the T and get the - " they slapped the backboard and got away with it?"
While I know each situation is different you would certainly have to be consistant and isn't it just easier to call the first?
And Kb - similar to your partner, I let a close blarge go the other night in a JVB game and went with a no call and wish I had it back too.......
I need to get better at that!!
