The question is, do we gloss over this because of the amount of high profile games they are getting? What about campers who try to immitate these actions and are told they are out of position - "Hello kettle, my name is pot."

Officials in other parts of the country - big name D1 officials - don't have respect for west coast officials because of things like this.

Could not agree more! However, I don't believe its confined to the West Coast. It's all over the joint, and I know I'm gonna catch he!! for this, but it's primarily on the men's side that we are seeing all these antics and fake attempts to look like they are "working." There I said it! lol
