To say there are no absolutes is completely false. Jeff I know you work college ball and there are absolutes according to: 2 hands on the dribbller, and tripping the dirbbler.

Tripping the dribbler is a new one this year and it is being enforced by evaluators. 2 hands on the dribbler is exceptionally difficult to see, interpret, and call 100% of the time and is frankly not being enforced by evaluators unless it occurs well outside the 3-point arc.

Nonsense. It's one of the easiest calls you can make anywhere on the court if you're refereeing the defense.

You misunderstood my point, sorry if it wasn't clear. There are no absolutes regarding what I saw on video, what the coach saw from the bench 60 feet away or what the 3 officials saw.
