And
afaik Dick Cartmell honestly believed he made the correct call on this play as per his own personal 5-second count. Do you know something different that we don't know?
It was a judgment call. Officials are human, not robots. Do you honestly believe there is any mechanic anywhere that would make every D1 official's count come out to
exactly 5.0 seconds
every single time?
Instead of questioning Cartmell's judgment on one particular call, you chose instead to indict his character for not admitting a
possible mistake in judgment. Well, that's just wrong imo.
Just saying...
