I had a coach some years ago have this exchange with me.
My partner called a travel on the home team. I happened to be standing in front of the home coach in a 3 Person crew. The home team coach immediately starting questioning my partner's call. All I said to him was, "my partner had a good look at it." The coach came back and said, "When I look on the tape, the officials are right 99% of the time anyway." I looked at this coach with amazement. I have never heard that before and never heard a coach say that since. Peace

I am 6'-5". In our state we typically have a girls varsity game followed by the boys varsity. During a timeout of a boys game, I stood near the cheeleaders on the endline waiting to administer the ball. an attractive girl who had played in the girls game and was now cheerleading said to me "You sure are tall, if I was as big as you do you think I could dominate you?" I thought, but didn't say, Oh baby! You don't have to be big to dominate me!

More on the humorous side
This past year I was working a soroity playoff game. White is bringing the ball down court and blue 25 is running down the court to get back on defense. The white player moves to one side to try to get around her defender and into blue 25's path. Blue 25, who , it seemed, had time to see white move and space to get around her, the runs right into white. I call a foul and report it: Blue 2-5, Push, White ball. Blue 25 then turns to me with a stunned look on her face and says "But I ran into her!"

The punch is used for both in womens NCAA and the NBA. There is a player control in women's NCAA. In the NBA it is just called a charge, there is no "player control" in the rule book. Both use the punch and it is a better mechanic. Many men's officials no longer use the head behind the head but use a modified fist with their finger out pointing the other way. In the SEC they are allowed to use the punch. Personally I like the punch a lot better. |

Both NCAA Men's and Women's basketball have a player control and a team control foul rule. A player control foul is exactly the same as team control foul, except the foul is on a player with the ball. The only main difference between Men's and Women's basketball in this area is the fact that the Men's side does not apply the airborne shooter rule the same. Once a shooter releases the ball, if they commit a foul before coming back floor then it is a regular foul and bonus free throws are possible if the offended team is in the bonus.
The real difference is that each level has a different signal. I have used the "punch" myself during Men's basketball and I have never been told not to use it.

My first question I have proref27 is do you plan on retiring anytime soon. It seems like what you do would be so tiresome. Don't get me wrong though you look like you could go for several more years. I love watching you and many others work and more than anything i would love to be able to hear how you interact with players and coaches because more than anything (besides always getting the call right) that is what I want to be very good at. If you have any tips or websites you could give me I would be very appreciative.
