Then you're not paying attention. The whistle is blown early on these types of plays all the time … yes, even in high school games with "real" officials (gasp).

Sad, but true.

Agree. I've heard the whistle often before the ball is actually OOB. Of course, we're talking much less than a second in situations that really don't matter most all of the time.

I have seen it in college and NBA games also.
