I do not see any problem with the court coverage by the T and C and also this is the T's call 100% of the time. We can watch the tape and discuss whether or not the T made the correct call and I am sure that it will be discussed in the evaluation that he receives: With the questions that he will be asked is where was he looking and what did he see?

It was not a foul but a legal screen. That said, let he who has never screwed the pooch cast the first stone.

Let me everyone with two stories:

#1) I was in attendance at a men's MAC game about 20 years ago. I personally knew the MAC evaluator, who was sitting court side, I personally knew the MAC Supervisor who was sitting court side, and was sitting next to the past MAC Supervisor who was there to evaluate 2 of the 3 officials, as to whether they were to receive an invitation to the Big 10 try out camp. The game started and almost 90 seconds, which 3 team possessions, was played before all 3 officials realized that a major mistake had been made with the Shot Clock. There was a happy ending eventually, all 3 officials made it to the Big 10.

#2) Daryl H. Long, a long time member of this forum, and I were officiating a women's jr. college game at Owens Community College. OCC, at the time, played its men's and women's basketball games on a court at one end of a large multipurpose building with bleachers on only one side of the court. A folding chair was placed at the Division Line extended on the Side Line opposite the Table (and bleachers) about 10 feet off the Side Line. An extra game ball was placed on this chair in case an errant ball would go flying down to the other end of the building. We would grab the ball on the chair and resume the game while some one would retrieve the ball and place it on the chair. Sure enough about 90 seconds into the game the ball goes flying down to the other end and we grab the ball on the chair. We played the next 15 minutes or so with the ball on the chair before one of the players realized that we were playing with a men's ball. We screwed up!
