For clarification I NEVER said to the official in question 'you can 't change the rules'. But that is, in essence, what he did. I don't know how stating what happened is smartmouth. Even Snaqwells admitted that in his posts that the travel and counted basket was incorrectly ruled. I said at the beginning of this post that I wasn't for sure about the possession arrow so I asked in this forum. I was pretty sure I was wrong, but just wanted to understand the rule.
That said, I know that I will never coach a 100% perfect game and my players will never play a 100% perfect game. So I always tell my players there has never been a 100% perfectly refereed game so don't expect to see one tonight. Get over the calls they are PART of the game. I have and will never blame a loss or credit a win to a referees call. So, I really wasn't complaining about the calls just trying to get clarification. I truly believe that referrees are trying just as hard as coaches and players to get it right. So try not to be so defensive when I question a refs call, we are all gonna make mistakes man up and admit when you did. |

![]() BTW - since the ball went OOB untouched, the subsequent inbound spot would be the same as where you originally took the ball out, not where it "went" out. Was this the case?

No I don't mention the referees in a pre game talk. But invariably high school kids and parents always want to blame the referees for outcomes of games. So that is what I meant when I said I always tell them to remember that calls are PART of the game.

This is a good point. We miss stuff; not only because we're human and sometimes forget or misapply a rule, but sometimes we get caught out of position or other players get in our line of sight.
