Call The T

I don't care what the score is and what game it is, it is not the NBA, slam the ball get a T. I don't care who you are frustrated with...Every player knows you don't do that. I'm disappointed with Hightower after that!

No kidding

I have never seen a ball slammed down and go that high without a T. "But he was mad at himself?" Please.

Good officials don't call a T in that situation. That's just ridiculous.

No way on calling the T in this game.

And another note, Cahill and Corbett worked the championship game last year as well, so these two guys plus Hightower...must be doing something right.

A technical here would go down as one of the worst calls of all time.

So you're living in fear of what some JV kid may or may not say to you next winter?

If you live in fear of what a 15 y/o kid is going to say to you, you should probably hang'em up.

What rule means you call the NCAA D1 final different than a NCAA D-III opening weekend game, or apply different principles to a HS JV Game...

THE only thing that changes is YOUR ATTITUDE TOWARDS the game... Then you are not impartial, and probably blow off contracts for JV games and make the rest of the refs in the world cover your tail.

All I was trying to say is that it establishes a precedent. Slamming the ball down and being stupified for getting a T will happen next year.

Now, I fully understand why it was not called, I just do not agree with it, and apparently I'm only allowed to have an opinion that is agreed upon by the majority of the board...I digress because I'm full of whatever, or stupid or whatever other name we can revert to calling our fellow officials...

It's not high school either, Rev. Different philosophy. There's a time and a place, and that was neither.
