In the HS game this is not the case often, but there are many that suggest the Lead should be there to take a peak on a shooter near the end line. Part of the logic is if the player gets fouled, who are they going to say should have seen the contact?

Gonna have to disagree here...this was an end line throw-in, and the L was inside the thrower...as soon as the ball was thrown in, the L started walking toward the shooter, and made the call from a horrible position. I understand that if the L was already in "wide angle" ( if it is still called that) that he could take a look at the play to help out. This L completely left his PCA and went out there and made a questionable call out of his area. And that seems to happen a lot in NCAA Men's coverage. Jmo...
