Travels by rule, often not called at that level.

Yes, but the NCAA is now directing officials to call it. Some/many are now doing so.

I have never seen a single video or directive not to call traveling at the college level. At least not in Men's basketball.

Never said their was.

But, there have been plenty of people here and pretty much everywhere over the years doing everything they can to avoid calling traveling for any number of reasons. Now the NCAA is putting an emphasis on it...and the officials seem to be able to call it correctly much more of the time without any noticeable difficulty.

Which one? They are not the same level.

For the record, the first play is a high school game.

Is there a "level" that does a better job adjudicating plays like these?

i think it's because of how fast the move was & the fact the player spinned meaning referees might have difficulty looking at the ball when their view is blocked by the player.

it's easy to tell from viewers angle & slow mo but you have to make calls in real time unless it's a dead ball.

but in both cases the player ended the dribble by picking the ball with 1 foot on floor (pivot), spins & lands the non-pivot foot, lifting the pivot foot & lands on it while still possessing the ball.
