Officiating from the middle of the lane

[JRutledge]

I can tell you from personal experience as I have been to 3 of John Adam's camps before he became the Coordinator of the NCAA Men's Basketball. John does not want officials in the lane (other than rotating) and he does not want people to go across to call things as the Lead. I will assume that all the comments that I heard about this, did come from things John wanted his officials to do and were far reaching with his evaluators at camp. And he also likes a lot of rotating when possible. I am sure this directive is just an extension of what has been already voiced if you either worked for John at all his levels when he was a coordinator and is coming to the forefront as the NCAA Coordinator.
