rekent deecee wroteYes. What is a definition of a shot? & When does the ball become dead? Know these 2 and you know the solution. Was pretty sure I did, just have never really thought about this one.
Raymond deecee wroteHow close was the ball going through the basket and buzzer sounding? At the time did they have replay capabilities? I forget all the particulars but the ball was definitely tipped before time expired and definitely entered the basket after time expired. Teddy and crew got the call wrong. I may still have memo b/c at the time a very good friend of my was working in the CAA which has the same supervisor as the ACC.

I may still have memo b/c at the time a very good friend of my was working in the CAA which has the same supervisor as the ACC. This I just don't get. These are not obscure rules which I can understand messing up. I can also understand a new official (less than 3-4 years) getting this wrong too. But IMO stuff like this is pretty inexcusable.
Raymond Can't find memo, but here is the game: TechSideline.Com | 2005-06 Basketball Recap: Hokies Drop Close Game to Bowling Green, 72-71 I remember seeing video back when it happened and there was no doubt the basket should not have counted and the memo acknowledged as much. I'm quite sure we even discussed it here the forums.
letemplay After reading the game account, I had forgotten there were more timing issues than the last shot...kindofaclustr:eek:
Raymond Here is an old thread, http://forum.officiating.com/basketball/30369-different-scenario-ny-knicks-play.html, that referenced the Va Tech play. Beware, classic Jurassic post in this thread.
