Throw-in ... Step Over Line

I just wanted to make clear that there is a philosophy coming from the higher levels. And it was made very clear that this was the way things are suppose to be. And Marcy Weston and Barbra Jacobs both signed off on this philosophy and told us that coaches would be informed of this philosophy. Also the NF Basketball Rules Editor is Mary Struckoff (a D1 Women's Officials and loved by many Illinois Officials ) there might conceivably see interpretations that might support the NCAA's philosophy. We will see if that is the case but time will tell.

As is said repeatedly on this board, call it the way your assignor wants it called. When you work for Marcy Weston, I mean, when I work for Marcy Weston, I'll call it her way. While I'm working for Howard Mayo, I'll call it his way. Others who read Jeff's post should keep in mind that different areas do things different ways. Just because Jeff was told at his college women's meeting to do it one way, does not mean that everyone else in the country should do that. Coaches around here really don't like the explanation that this is how the big kids do it -- especially after they have gone out of their way to discuss it with the assignor, and drill their players on legal maneuvers.
