Fun With A Hip Check …

Because I'm strictly a high school official, but am still curious about some NCAA "stuff", JRutledge and Raymond have now totally confused me.

NFHS: One signal (hand behind head) for both player control and team control fouls (that I'm certain of).

NCAA Men: One signal (hand behind head) for both player control and team control fouls (according to Raymond, "went to behind the head").

NCAA: One signal (punch) for both player control and team control fouls (according to JRutledge, "both (NFHS and NCAA) have decided on different signals").

Maybe I'm confused because of a possible difference between NCAA Men and NCAA Women?

Help. I'm curious and I can't get up.

I work NCAA-Men's and always defer to Bob and others when it comes to NCAA-Women's. I always make sure to reference Men's when I talk about the NCAA.

Maybe JRutledge was referring to NCAA Women ("both (NFHS and NCAA) have decided on different signals")?

I do not work women's basketball and do not care about women's basketball. The NCAA Men's Basketball is the only basketball that makes money and has well-known changes. Women's basketball is so busy trying to be the NBA, they often only do what the NBA does.

BTW, this was in the CCA Manual for 2020-2021.



But thanks for playing.

Peace

Then please explain to me how the single team control/player control NCAA signal is different than the NFHS single team control/player control signal, or was Raymond or JRutledge mistaken?



Sure looks the SAME (as in not DIFFERENT) as the NFHS signal.

You are posting the signal from NCAA-Men's CCA Manual, so why are you asking if I'm mistaken?

Sorry. No offense intended, just giving somebody else the benefit of a doubt as I struggle to decipher, "the funny thing is both have decided on different signals".

Sorry to drag you into this, but thanks for your enlightening (and confirming) posts.

Got a bee in my bonnet because I used this quote above, from somebody I consider an NCAA rule expert, this morning during a live You Tube presentation (with at least three Forum members in attendance) on new 2021-22 NFHS rules and mechanics to (erroneously) point out that while the NFHS decided to go with the hand behind the head, the NCAA went a "different" way with the punch. Now it's too late to go back and say that I was mistaken (which I am more than willing to do).

But it's still not too late for somebody else to say that they were mistaken.

My reference or comment to different signals was the idea that they would stop using the TC and PC signals for those different types of fouls. I was not trying referencing to what the NF did in comparison to or why. The NCAA did decide to make a change first and did so because of their issues with confusion in their high-profile situations. Also, the NCAA shows a full procedure, the NF at this time only shows one signal (according to their Pre-Season Guide made by NASO). It is a little different and really not the point I was trying to make here. Not worried about why different organizations want to do something they see fit. Different participants and different officials.

Peace

Two sentences were posted, not one sentence.

Because one is a signal and the other is a signal sequence. Stick to the actual signal and both are essentially the same signal (hand behind head). I doubt that the NFHS doesn't want us to stop the clock and point the direction. Probably also wants us to point to the throwin spot and signal the type of contact as part of our preliminary signal and/or reporting signal (team control illegal screen block, player control push/charge, etc.).

I would still like this quote deciphered, or described simply as a poorly worded written communication mistake.

Suggest that one saves and enlarges to read.
