So my suggestion is to do the right thing for the game and not put a decision in the game that will get you in the paper for the wrong reasons.

Dick Carmell would call a "T" in this situation. It's that obvious...and especially with the POE that the NCAA issued this year on coaches being out of their boxes. Unfortunately, other officials don't have his testicular fortitude. That's my opinion.
If you're trying to use the rationale that you shouldn't make any call because it might get you in the paper, you're in the wrong bidness. You call something...anything...strictly on merit. Period.
