On the subject of overturning OOB calls....
I was watching a D1 game in person a couple of weeks ago and John Higgins was one of the officials in the game. He was the C at the time and the ball went out right under the basket on the endline. The L pointed the other direction, which was the direction of the Visitors. Everyone in the arena knew the Visitors were the last to touch, except the L. Higgins came in strong with a whistle and just changed it himself. Didn't give info and let the L decide, just changed it. I'm assuming they pre-gamed it that way. Just interesting to see the difference in mechanics between those guys and the rest of us.
