Mechanics, whatever.

One of the six eyes responsible for monitoring the play should have detected the shot clock violation - stepped up and done the right thing. Period.

Yuck.

What do you mean "stepped up and do the right thing"? :confused:

All 3 officials missed it. Yes, that's inexcusable but how exactly should one them have done the right thing after the fact?

With a stoppage at that juncture the crew should have been communicating how much time was left on the shot and game clocks.

I'm not well versed in NCAA mechanics. In FIBA, the outside officials have responsibility for the flight of the ball and related issues. That being said, with such an egregious error the lead should have stepped up.

Rarely do the officials cost a team the game but in this case they did.

-1 WRONG!!
While they missed the call, they did NOT cost a team the game. Now, I might have agreed with you if you said they cost a team a chance to win the game, but if they had gotten this call right, it would have (most likely) gone into overtime. Once in OT, anything could happen.

I think you're looking for trouble where it doesn't exist.

I meant that one of those three should have caught the violation and waved off the false buzzer-beater.

Picking nits, there. He surely meant costing the other team a chance to win on OT. Let's not think too much.

...

Must just be me b/c I'm thinking if someone caught the violation of course they would have waved off the buzzer beater. Saying someone needs to "step up and do the right thing" can easily be inferred as someone was lacking either 'nads or integrity.

Why would you think that? People say the exact same thing all the time when they are blaming the game on the officials.

Almost looked like she pulled a Welmer on the way to the table, but I will have to re-watch it to be sure.

I also would not have a username that is so traceable while making comments about who is working with who on a public forum.

Just re-watched it. The coach is patting his head more than Curly did in a whole series of shorts. The explanation that the coach did not have a concern with the shot clock appears to be bogus.
However, since it is not a CE, his point was moot.
