Jump ball to start the game

[Johnny Ringo]

Here is what happened:

A1 and B1 jump center. A1 ends up catching the jump ball. Nothing called. B1 coach is going crazy with the no call.

A1 scores a 2-point fg.

32 seconds into the game the official blows his whistle and stops the game. They take the points off the board and re-jump with the clock remaining at 7:28.

How should this have been handled assuming they did not call the violation. I think they should have let it go as is, but is this correctable?

[slow whistle]

Took points off the board are you kidding me? This is no more correctable than thinking you missed a travel 32 seconds after it happened and trying to take points off the board between that point and the current. If they didn't call the violation too bad, play on.

Sounds like a slow whistle..........never mind.

Any idea what prompted the officials to make this adjustment after this long?

Man, that's what I call a delayed whistle!!!

Team B coaches were not letting this go. They were beside themselves over the non call!

Good grief, every single part of this was done incorrectly. If you're going to do a do-over, go whole hog and put 8:00 back up.
If you're going to call the violation retroactively, give the ball to B and the arrow to A.
If you're going to do it correctly, let the B coach know you missed it but it's time to move on. Warn and whack if necessary.

It's true, some officials can be worked. I'm guessing B coaches didn't let up on these guys the whole game.

Then this needs to be dealt with (and not by going back to the jump).

The coaches have a right to be upset and express their opinions, but they have to do it the right way.

The table crew brought it to their attention.

That's just wrong.
