Wanting to call it the same at both ends, a third violation was called. I have called this 5-6 times a season. I have never seen it called twice in a game, let alone 3 times.

The good news is that the halftime talks by their coaches seemed to have cured the problem.

Had a similar situation this year. I'm L and administering an inbound to A1 on the sideline. After inbounding the ball I turn to look into the low post and notice A1 running OOB past me (i.e., passed me on my OOB side) and didn't re-enter inbounds until he got to the other side of the key. Weird stuff but still made the call.

You call that violation 5-6 times a season??

I find that hard to believe that it happens so blatantly that it needs to be called that many times. Are these kids really attempting to gain some kind of advantage or do they just happen to be out of bounds and not realize it? I've maybe called it one time since it became a violation. Maybe.

While I called this about 2 weeks ago, I don't even remember the last time I called it...probably years ago. It just doesn't happen much.

I've called it once; 2 or 3 years ago.

Guess Smitty likes to set aside rules he doesn't like. Penalty used to be a T.

I know what the penalty used to be, genius. That's why I said "since it became a violation". You didn't answer my question.

I'm with Smitty, I just never see it.

Saw it and called it in a college game last Friday. (The NCAA rule is slighlty different -- the player who ran OOB must be the first (next) to receive a pass to be a violation.)
