If the kid goes all the way to the FT line and taps the player he is replacing on the shoulder, then issue a T. If the ball is dead, get it fixed. If the ball is live, issue a T. etc. And, yes, there's judgment involved (what about 2 steps, 3 steps, 4 steps, etc. onto the floor). Deal with it. |

9.2.5 SITUATION: Thrower A1 inadvertently steps through the plane of the boundary line and touches the court inbounds. A1 immediately steps back into normal out-of-bounds throw-in position. The contact with the court was during a situation: (a) with; or (b) without defensive pressure on the throw-in team. RULING: A violation in both (a) and (b). COMMENT: Whether or not there was defensive pressure or whether or not stepping on the court was inadvertent, it is a violation and no judgment is required in making the call. BTW the NCAA says the same and even issued a bulletin a couple of years ago specifying this point. |

So is what you're espousing that if your partner waves a sub for team A in, and as sub approaches team member he's replacing, you brain-fade and administer the throw in-your remedy for your mistake is call a T on A for 6 players on the floor? |

My point with the Louisville/Rutgers play and Case Book play 9.2.5 is that we are discussing a player clearly stepping over a line, but his action isn't really affecting gameplay. There is a rule against this in all of the situations.
Should a call be made by an official? Some are advocating calling it, some are not. It seems that both the NCAA and the NFHS want it called whether there is an advantage gained or not, and it seems that most officials are going to call it when it is obvious. |

Altered quote! Not really Rut's words. Done by me to make a point.

BTW I saw a few sports reporters on TV who said that he had no bearing on the play, but they all agreed that he was offside and that it was a penalty. |

My point is my supervisor considered how we handled our play correct. I didn't know that until after the fact. He has also said many times if we apply the rules, he has no problem backing us up. Which, obviously, is a slight contradiction because there were 6 players on the floor, and we discovered it, so we could have, by rule, issued the T. So, at least in this specific instance with this specific supervisor, "common sense" trumps "strict rules interpretation". Do all supervisors feel this way? Probably not. Can I use what I feel is common sense instead of strict rules interpretation all the time? Absolutely not. So where is that line drawn? I'm still trying to figure it out.

What one supervisor believes is the right thing to do, another will say was clearly incorrect. All I can tell you is that is the human factor in sports. Strange stuff happens, decisions are made by people and that makes the game worth watching. Otherwise a computer could always tell us who would win. What would be the fun of that? |
