Question

I was watching this game but the phone rang and just caught the inbounds after the call. My son said that one ref called a block and one a charge so they ruled a double foul and went to the arrow. They didn't show the replay again so that is all I know. I wish I could have saw it, though. That is one problem with trying to "sell" your call which leads to these types of problems on a block/charge. In a loud gym (which The Barn called Williams Arena certainly is unless the Gophers are getting blown out) you can't hear the other whistle blow. Both officials make their signal, what do you do? I'm not sure a double foul is possible? But obviously it is. If you think about it, what other recourse did they have? I'll be interested in hearing from college officials on this one.
