My point was simply that you had two officials give signals on the floor; one for PC one for block. This is the bad situation I was referring to. At that point, I think you've got a tough road if you try to sell one over the other. One coach is going to think that one official overruled the other no matter how you explain it. The rule book gives you an out. Will it make everyone happy, probably not, but that's the rule. One thing I always cover in my pre-game is the double whistle especially on block charge situations. If we have one, let's make sure we have a fist, eye contact and go with whoever's primary area it is whether two or three person crews. If we need to get together and talk let's do it (i.e where did the play originate, etc.). Otherwise, non-primary gives up to primary and play on. In this situation, because of the actions of the officials, not saying who was right or wrong, double foul was the right call.
