rule 2-3? Don't misunderstand, I think rule 2-3 is a good and necessary part of the book, but the very nature of the rule requires it to be so broadly worded that I could not imagine (until now) using it as the basis for the answer to a test question.

a point specifically covered in the rules, therefore 2-3 does not apply.

I just received my IAABO 2003-04 Refresher Test and the answers to it last week and I have not looked at it. Not only that, due to my knee rehab, I did not attend the Spring 2003 and Fall 2003 IAABO meetings so I did not take part in the questions on this year's test. But tomorrow I will email Roger MacTavish with everybody's concern's about the answer to Question #79.

I certainly don't have anything against IAABO, Mark. I actually was a member for many years, and I think that it is a good organization. What IAABO doesn't have is any kind of official standing when it comes to the rules, unless it happens to be in one of the few states that may happen to use IAABO as their State governing body. Care to argue that? |

At the end of the day.......
you do whatever the hell you want to do. Because I for one am not going to concern myself over the most unusual play that would have to happen in my career for this to even be an issue. We have officials that cannot call the basic foul or basic violation and we are debating what would we do in a once in a life time play. I have not heard one person say this has happen to them, but this play was a "what if" situation. And if you guys want to argue over the many "what if's" situation, be my guest. I do not know that the NF or NCAA knows this play is even a concern to worry about. Why are we concerned then?
Peace

Interesting scenario, I referee to Fiba rules only and if I had a query on any ruling I would email Fiba directly and get a reply back back within 2 days. I think I know what I would do in this situation. Do you in the U.S. not have anybody who has the final say about certain rulings?

JR, thanks for the prompt reply. I suppose we can consider ourselves lucky to referee to one set of rules only. Makes our job that much easier.

FIBA governs specific competitions and leagues. But if a league or group chooses not to be apart of FIBA, I am sure that is possible to have their own set of rules to participate under? Is this not correct? Peace

Roger MacTavish is the Chairman of the IAABO Rules Examination Committee and therefore is the person to contact if one has a question about the Refresher Test. IAABO does not make its own interpretations. IAABO's believes that NFHS and NCAA interpretations are the only correct interpretations. IAABO does not give intepretations per se. The Refresher Test is for the exclusive use of its members and the Examination Committee bases it answers on NFHS and NCAA rules, casebook plays, and approved rulings.

In your last two posts to this thread you made two comments that I find troubling.
I agree with you that the play we have been discussing in this thread while possible, the probability of it happening is very very small. I have found that complicated theoretical plays is a very good teaching tool, because it requires an official to break the play down into its components. When an official breaksdown the play, he sees how definitions and rules need to be applied and in the order that they need to be applied. The more troubling comment is that people are going to do whatever they feel like doing. I can tell you from experience that too many basketball officials have that attitude. Who cares what is in the rules and and casebook, lets do whatever will get me tournament votes and more games next year.
