Blarge administration

[zeedonk]

Ok, this is a bit embarrassing because I thought I knew this. Reviewing the rule and case books for the season. Case 4.19.8c- says blarge administration on a missed shot is double personal foul, point of interruption is a try for goal, so no team control and we go to AP.
Is this a recent change? Was under the obviously wrong impression of double foul, 1 foul shot and continue play from there...?

Who are you going to give the one shot to?

Not a recent change, all doubles go POI.

[JRutledge]

What we call a "blarge" is always a double foul by rule. All double fouls go to POI. And if the shot is in the air before the foul, then the basket can count too (or if a violation like goal tending is committed). This rule has been this way for about 4 years now. Not sure what has changed or what you could think has changed.

Excellent explanation. My favorite explanation was given at camp once: "Charge both fouls, score it if it's in the air and go to the POI. Then fire those two f*&^ers!"

Not to pile on, Zee, but when did we ever give 1 free throw in this sitch?

When are NCAAM and the NFHS going to follow the NCAAW and not allow a change to be called? The two calling officials must get together and decide whos call it is and make one call. Make one coach mad...not two.

Couldn't agree more!! Give it up to the primary and move on.

And who's primary is it in if both players have one foot in each area and are moving along the dividing line of the two area?

That is why you get together and talk about it, that is why you cover this during your pregame. I think to give it up to the officials whos area it is coming out of.

Anything is better than having to call a double foul!

True, its best to come together... even better to hold prelims!

I hear this alot too, but who has the best look at the status of the secondary defenders LGP?

I think that is a dumb mechanic and I seriously doubt that the Men's side is going to change that. It is easy to avoid if you do the right things. But to have both officials call something and only pick one in that case is just silly. I would never advocate that mechanic. And if officials would just raise their hand we would not have to worry about this.

JRut,

If this was a perfect world that would work but there were a lot of blarges at the D1 men's level last season. It can't be a block and a charge...it has to be one or the other. We would love for officials to be more patient and work in their primary but blarges are going to happen and IMO getting together is the lesser of two evils here.

There are a lot of blarges in D1 men's because the officials refuse to simply raise their hands to make a simple PC foul call. They run out to call something immediately. If they stopped doing that and supervisors stopped hiring guys or never punishing them for this, then they would not have that problem. I still think it is a silly mechanic to choose and put more responsibility on officials to avoid such situations is better. Just an opinion.

Yup. In the immortal words of Mother Teresa... "Sh!t happens!" And it happened to some of the better D1 guys last year too. You just have to adjudicate the play by the ruleset being used.
