Rut: I understand what you are saying about different rules, mechanics and philosophies between the two sides. IMO, what Snag is saying is that for NCAA women, if “blarge” occurs, officials would get together and determine the correct ruling - correct? In the same sense, if high school or NCAA men's officials get together on "blarge" and try to determine which foul (block or charge) occurs first, are they misapplying the rules because BY RULE it should be called a double foul?

IMO, it seems like this should either be called a block or a charge. There should be some sort of universal ruling or consistency to it. I just don't understand and know why they should be called any different (regardless of NFHS, college men or womens). I wish I can find a case play in the 2008 NCAA Men's and women's rulebook but can't. Could someone enlighten me and direct me case plays in the previous NCAA rule book?

Thanks
