College Mechanics More Lenient?
In our HS association there is a big push for universal mechanics between the officials (Chopping clock, counting with full hand, ect.). However, with college ball would you say officials have more leniency on their mechanics?

Depends entirely on your supervisor. You need to know your audience.
Start off doing the right thing. Pay attention to what the successful officials are doing to see which variances you can get away with. |
Absolutely
They want each official to chop/count the same??
I can understand wanting everyone to stop the clock properly & no finger pointing on directional signals, but Good Luck with that other stuff! When is the last time you've seen a NCAA-M official stop the clock on an OOB call? |
"Want" is the key word

I have participated in college camps where this very mechanic is very important to the supervisor and I have been to other camps where they don't give a damn if you chop at all. Even under John Adams vision of making officiating look alike across the NCAA nation I don't think "open hand vs. 1 finger vs. 2 finger" pointing is something he cares about. That will still be a "when in Rome" type deal. |

Ok & yes it is raining, but I took the shuttle.
Is OOB not a violation? Page 74 & 75 of the Mens CCA manual... |

They used to tell me "closed fists is college." Half truths used to confuse me until I began reading each rulebook for myself. |
