Girls Varsity, Spring League. (translate: not regular coaches). Dribbler prevented from driving to the basket by good solid defense. She cuts in right at the baseline and is running along under and behind the basket. Defender maintaining position. Dribbler moves slightly toward defender, and bounces OOB. i call OOB. Coach comes running out onto the floor screaming, "If her feet are in the air, it's got to be a forced out!!"


(It sounded like complete gibberish to me until someone on this board explained that there really did usued to be a rule, where if the defender could get the dribbler to step out of bounds, but the contact wasn't really enough for a foul, then it was called a "forced out", and the dribbler's team got the ball back. Still the funniest thing I've ever heard!)
