Ok, college guys, what's the real story?

Items to be brought to your attention

I have noticed a large increase in incorrect blocking calls at or near the basket but NOT in the restricted area. Our officials seem to be defaulting to a blocking foul any time there is contact at or near the basket. If it is not a secondary defender "under the basket" the play is to be officiated like a basketball play.

I agree with the memo. Carolina has already played more than a half dozen games and I'm seeing blocks called, anywhere within 6 or 7 feet of the rim. I have yet to see a PC foul on a drive to the basket.
