Calling it on Ed would be easy. However, if these were the five guys on the court for a team, I wouldn't know who to choose!

I don't buy the whole "Call it on who has fewer fouls and who will make less of an impact on the game" crap. That's a copout so you don't have to look like the bad guy. Take care of business if you need to.
I'd either A) Call it on who I thought committed the foul first, or B) If I can't determine that, go with a multiple foul since they did both foul the shooter. If one player's foul was "more of a foul", and I know one didn't happen before the other, I'll call that player for the foul. I won't however use a player's foul total to determine if he gets it or not. I had one almost like this at the end of this season. Shooter A1 drives on a fast break right at the lower block on the lane. At pretty much the same time, I see what I think is a foul by B1 on A1's arm from behind him, and B2 is sliding over to try and take a charge. I call B2 for the block because it was "more of a foul" than B1's foul. I know that sounds funny but it's the best term I can come up with. |

The OP said B1 and B2 fouled at the same time.

Why is nobody going by the book and calling a multiple or false multiple?
If it literally was the same exact instant, the book clearly says (NF) that it is a multiple foul (4-19-11). If they weren't at the same instant, you could again refer to the book and call a False Multiple Foul (4-19-12).
Case play 4-19-12: B1 fouls airborne A1 who is in the act of shooting. Before shooter A1 returns one foot to the flor, he/she is fouled by B2 who has moved into A1's landing area. The ball (a) does or (b) does not, enter the basket. Ruling This is a false multiple foul and each foul carries its own penalty. In (a) the goal is counted and A1 is awarded one free throw for each foul. In (b), A1 is awarded two free throws for each foul (10 Penalty 6, 7) All of this call it on the weaker player, less fouls, bench player, etc shouldn't matter under HS rules... |

Coach: That foul was on 40! Why'd you call it on 20?
Me: 20 is the one I was looking at, Coach. Most of the time, even if you see two fouls, you have a better look at one than the other. Call the one you have the best look at. Simple solutions are usually best. On the subject of multiple fouls, like most, I have never seen or called one. Never say never, but the only way I see myself jumping to make this call is if both were intentional/flagrant.

I heard your assignor is good enough to read minds; even you thinking about such a thing is worth a phone call.

I don't necessarily disagree; I was commenting on jeffpea's statement about using that as a reason to not call it on the "star", or the player with 4 fouls. For me, most of the time, the choice is easy - call it on the player that fouled first. Sometimes, it can be on the player that fouled harder instead. Very rarely will it be purposely on the player that has the least amount of fouls, especially if the additional reason is it will keep the coach or fans from getting upset.
Nyah, nyah, we agree! ![]()

Please people, we pick and choose all the time to not call a multiple foul. How you pick and choose is up to you. I do know that in a game I had this year where there was clearly not a multiple foul situation but the "star" fouled out as a result of my foul. You would have thought the sky fell by the way they reacted. If I had called a foul on another player, the reaction would have been different. Now because there is tape and I clearly would have to ignore what the star did, I called a foul on the star. I stuck with my call and it does not bother me, but if there was a multiple foul possibility where it is one or two players involved, I would have given the foul to the non-star in a minute. Or in some situations I had given the foul to the jerk player that has been causing problems all game long. I just know I am not calling a multiple foul.
Peace
