advanced mechanic
Watching the end of the Indiana - Michigan State game, during a contested shot underneath, the Lead puts up his hands like a defender maintaining verticality. Seemed odd.

Maybe he was signaling "over the back!"

Nice, now we get the traveling signal for a throw in violation.

I saw it too. One of the top dogs in the Big 10. Looked like he was calling a 3 pointer.

I see that mechanic used all the time in D-I and NBA games.

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.

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.

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