Guys read the article
Guys and Gals,
Post what you would have done, point out the errors... http://www.deseretnews.com/article/7...r-victory.html |

7-6-6: When the ball is awarded to the wrong team, the mistake must be
rectified before the throw-in ends. |
Once the throw-in ended, its too late to correct the error. It is not a correctable error situation. The points shouldn't of been erased or reinstated as correctable error does apply.
|
Sounds like a bunch of people that don't know the rule.
This is not a correctable error. Once the throw-in has ended, we can not correct the error of the wrong team in bounding the ball. The 3 point basket that resulted can not be taken back because it doesn't fit any of the five correctable error criteria. The fact that the association thought the initial ruling was correct is alarming. Second, there's no way I'm even entertaining a principal bringing out a rule book for us to read...much less five minutes later. |
I' m guessing the reporter didnt talk to the association's interpreter. Not exactly sure why the association would of talked to the reporter to start with.

First of all, communicate. Know the direction and team color after every single time out and intermission, and communicate it with your partner(s).
More importantly, know the damn rules! How can varsity officials not know that you can't correct throw-in errors such as these?! To miss a call or two is one thing. To have a principal pull out the book and school you on the rules is inexcusable. |

I had to show a rookie that mechanic this year. It's awkward, but effective. Just make sure there aren't any buddies behind you either. The ball tends to get poked. |
So they mess up on who gets the throw-in. Then they have a "do over" and take points off/put time back on. Then they have a "do over do over" and put the points back on. Does that about sum it all up?
My thoughts/comments: WTF???:eek: |
I like how the article ended with they will use officials from "out of the area". Like they were somehow biased to one team. That kind of stuff gets the hackles up.:mad:

This was a 1A game, The Smallest Class in Utah, I know this was just a 2-man game. The officials could be from Utah but I would bet they were from CO, AZ or NM as this school is in extreme SE Utah near the 4-Corners area where they get the official from those other states because of proximity.
I think any official should know the new rule regarding the inbound and then again know rule 2-10 and removing points from the scorebook. Sounds like the communication wasn't the best, but then the story is just one-side. Morale to the story: acknowledge TO, report the TO, then communicate to your partner(s) the direction we will be going following the TO and the position on the court where we will inbound. |
Love the "leads to Green River victory" part of the headline. As if a 3 point shot in the third quarter is that big of a deal.
