Well, I wish I was as smart on my NCAA predictions as I was on my prediction about this thread...

Thanks for all the feedback. From some of the threads posted, it seems I made a good decision in calling the foul on the player who had more impact on the shot. I understand that it is difficult to determine simultaneous action. At this point in my short career (2 years), I did not process the points of game management as posted here in regards to: best player, most fouls, game impact, I just called a foul and tried to make the best decision as I saw it. Experience does play an important part in calling a game, as I have learned from many of you. I want to be able to call a fair game. Being fair to the players for the good play as well as violations they commit. I philosophically have a problem with picking and choosing a violation based on athletic ability. I try to be unbiased. Yes, I understand some of the game management issues, jeff... is referring to, which makes sense as he had addressed it from his years of experience, but I would have a tough time calling a violation based on player impact on the game. I appreciate everyone's input.
