Good game management

Well, Ed Hightower is Ed Hightower and I'll never get his schedule, but I'm pretty sure that there was an edict handed down -- after a debacle in an NCAA tournament game -- about NOT overlooking this violation.

This is one that I'm torn about. I'd like to ignore it, but I think we're not supposed to.

Chuck is dead on. There was an NCAA bulletin a couple of seasons back which said that this was not a judgment call and must be called a violation whether or not there is defensive pressure.

It pretty much said what the NFHS case book play 9.2.5 says on this.

Therefore, I don't agree that Hightower used good game management in this case, all he did was fail to do what the NCAA has instructed him to do.
