I think so. Older white guy. I'm not convinced he actually left the spot.

Love the travel call out of bounds. Rookie mistake, not a D1 official.

I'm still trying to figure out why the old lead/new trail points the other way after a made basket.

[rafking]

I guess the new trail is helping the players know which way to run.

Kitts was in U1 position for tipoff (Barone tossed), yet Kitts put the ball in play to start 2nd half.

R vs. tosser, perhaps.

[knockitoff]

Not too often the weak link gets to toss it.

Right, Kitts. He was at Nebraska (vs. Wisconsin) last night. If he's not the Big Ten top dog, he's right up there.

Saw him make this same signal on a fast break as new lead. It looked like he signaled a made three pointer.

That mechanic is in the same book as the "get up" mechanic & the "play on" mechanic.

So in other words, soccer signals are invading NCAA D1?

I see this in the NBA, in the rare times I turn their games on. Unnecessary in my opinion.

Telling the new lead to get the hell to the other baseline.
Under 2 minutes in the 4th and in overtime they have to chop the clock or a start of a count.
or
Signal they have last shot.

The point, at least in the NBA, has nothing to do with a timing issue or telling the new lead to get to the other base line and Welpe isn't referring to the signal officials give to indicate last second shot responsibilities. You tend to see the point that Welpe is referring to whenever there's contact that wasn't deemed illegal by the official and I guess the point is a kind of "play-on" signal.

Should also point out that under NBA rules the clock stops on made shots with a minute or less on the clock in the first three quarters and the final two minutes of the fourth quarter/any overtime period. The clock stops on a made basket in the final minute of the second half and any OT period under NCAA rules.

This...although I've seen the point the other way with no contact on an uncontested layup in the middle of the first half. Maybe he is just telling the players time to go the other way now.
