If you think that an official "looks bad"when getting a play called correctly, then it seems as though your priorities are mis-placed.

it was sarcasm -- related to another thread.

Yes, and some of us got it immediately.

I have to be honest. Watching live on full speed I said block. In slow mo I thought PC.

I can live with it either way and the way it was handled here was 100% appropriate for the play.

The title of the post has me confused. Isn't this the C's call? Its on his side of the lane, and was in position. If anything, was the L's whistle too quick?

I agree its a block, and since there was a double whistle, don't mind the mini-conference, but wouldn't it be better for them to both hold, and then the C take the call?

No. In NCAA-M plays in the lane involving secondary defenders are the leads primary responsibility.
