Well the umpires(all 3) ruled Obstruction and the assigner for the conference(who is on the the national NCAA committee) just happened to be at the game and agreed(That was my official ruling).

The protest was denied because you can not protest obstruction/interference. There is alot of "Backstory" here(regarding the protesting team) that I will not bore you all with. Suffice it to say that it was a miserable experience for all. It's one of those stories that makes you thank your lucky stars that you were not apart of.

However, we just got done working a series with another umpire involved and he said that a "Videotape" has surfaced and was being reviewed by the NCAA. Another umpire involved was going to receive a copy of the video this weekend. I will be talking to him tommorrow about another unrelated issue that has cropped up. Will let you know how the video turns out.
