NCAAW NCG: Arizona-Stanford
Opening tip: you blowing that back as the U1?
|
Nope. It was straight and high enough, and it hit the jumpers before it hit the floor. Good enough for me. The fact the players made it look awful is not relevant. You throw it any higher than 8 feet in a girls/women's game, it will always turn out like that anyway.

I ask because I hadn't seen ANY NCAAW playoff games (until I turned to this one with about 30 seconds to go). (And, top be clear, I've seen less than 10 minutes of NCAAM games) |
I do not watch much women's basketball at all. So no video unless someone else has the ablity to show video. I only hear about these situations after the fact. I record almost every NCAA tournament game on the Men's side and watch many games myself. So, more video.

Jump Ball Re-Jumped ...
Quote:
Why was this jump ball re-jumped? The toss was straight. The toss was high enough (higher than both players could jump). The tossing officials didn't get in anybody's way. The toss wasn't bad such that it caused either jumper to violate. Players were facing the correct direction. Both jumpers mistimed the jump ball, not due to a bad toss by the tossing official, but because the players screwed up. Even so everything subsequently turned out to be legal. Why was this jump ball re-jumped? Regarding high school games, no more jump balls, that why God inspired somebody to invent the alternating possession arrow. No more peach baskets. No more chicken wire around the perimeter of the court. No more two hand set shots. No more jump balls. Seriously, why was this jump ball re-jumped? |
It appears the Arizona jumper touched the ball. Why was this even rejumped?

It’s rare to see a toss that’s too high – most tosses are too low. The U1 probably got surprised.

The only possible reason to call it back would be a jump ball violation by White (encroaching on Red's half of the center circle). However, even if that was the call, the proper continuation would have been awarding possession to Red at the division line opposite the table. It pains me to say that the crew screwed up the administration of this jump ball for no good reason.
