[QUOTE=Tio;674311]Whoa...don't ever tell a coach "No, he didn't." If you are not 100% sure. "It looked good to me", or "I didn't see his foot hit the line" are better options.

OP, I think the last poster gives great advice.

Nonetheless, it was a tough situation. In 2 person pre-games we usually agree that the trail has the last shot and therefore the clock unless there is only 1 clock, then opposite has it. If you did not do this, I suggest that you consider it. I've never had a pre-game and said help out on the clock on situations like yours. I probably will in the future.

2 other things to consider. 1) as the trail, you may be responsible for 2 players on the ball, while the lead may be covering the other 8 and have his/her hands full. 2) I'm not leaving my game at the table, by relying solely on the horn. At least one of the officials better be monitoring the clock.

This was a learning experience for me. So thanks.
