Of course we'll never be perfect, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try. When it comes down to something a computer chip can do better than a human timer, go with the computer chip. We owe it to the players, coaches, schools, and fans to be as exact as possible with the clock - especially at the end of games and in the tourney, where every game seems to come down to a last-second shot.
If we are worried about .1 second at the end of the game...what about all .1 seconds that are lost during the rest of the 39+ minutes????
