Stolen tip

I didn't even notice either of last night's jump balls. If I see a stolen tip, I whistle it back. I know I've done it once within the last year, but it was so unmemorable to me that I don't even remember what the game was. I think it was a preseason college scrimmage.

Now I'm sitting back waiting for a teaching point so I can make my games better. For some reason I don't think there will be any type of teaching point forthcoming.

Well, since you called me out, I'll humor you:

1. Call the obvious
2. Calling back a marginally-stolen tip is likely setting a precedent for that game that an official might regret - because both coaches (especially the one who was penalized) are going to expect you to call EVERYTHING.
3. Why can't we all get along??!!

Here's a sequence maybe Rut can dial up for us:

About 6:00 to go in regulation, Kyle Guy from UVA is seemingly tied up or fouled on the perimeter …

… play continues, UVA player ends up with the ball under the hoop. He backs into and displaces TT's Tariq Owens to create space for a good hoop and a foul. Owens fouled out on the play.

I'd like to hear people's perspectives on the whole sequence, but particularly the foul that was whistled. I might have gone PC, if anything.


There is an overhead replay of this too, Rut. Thanks.

Neve mind. I missed the "2019 Nat Ch Game video request thread."

Are you saying the play was posted? I just want to make sure I posted that play you are talking about?

Peace
