I personally probably would have done nothing, but that part is debatable. BUT, if we are to understand that which direction the arrow was pointing was even a small factor in your decision to go that route, I have a big problem with that.

I think I'm reading Tomegun correctly in saying that his main problem is that there was not a whistle for a jump ball so how the call be changed to that.

I have to agree. I don't have a problem with you coming in and giving your partner information in an area where your primaries overlap like in this case. That being said, your information (as I read it) was that B1 made contact with ball, dislodging it momentarily from A1's control. Therefore your information to the calling official (should he choose to use it) was that no violation ocurred. No held ball because the ball was dislodged and no travel because the ball was once again dislodged.

I think you have to go IW or stick with the original call...jmo

My first thought is your partner made a call so, find your next three-man position go to that spot and keep calling in your area. *I also think that the ball came loose and the "control" is lost so I won't blow my whistle. Your partner saw the play differently . MOVE ON. I have watched many, many games where EVERYONE saw something differently ie. fans, coaches, players, janitors, siblings, ADs, commentators, parents, and yes co-officials. Let it go .......
