While I do understand the reasoning behind not calling the foul - (discounting the contact on the head) the contact didn't cause the blocked shot, and neither player was going to retrieve the ball before going OOB - would it make a difference if there was another defender standing right along the endline, and they managed to catch the ball before it went OOB? Now the ball remains live, and one team has a 5-on-4 until the player who was knocked OOB gets up and rejoins the play. Does that change anyone's opinion from a no-call to a foul?
