Someone want to explain to these jokers why a player can't run in from outside the 3-point line on the release?

Uhmmm because its not the NBA?

Or because players not along the lane lines have the same restriction as the shooter?

They need a rules expert sitting in the studio to help them when they're too stupid to know the rule.

The crew looked bad on the out of bounds play right after this. The announcers are right -- either call the foul or call the OOB correctly. Film don't lie.

Yep. I don't think we'll see them on Saturday. Too bad, Corbett is a past Nat'l Champ. official.

Do they no longer already preselect the 1st two rounds? It used to be that the officials would know ahead of time if they were working one or two games.

No idea. But I sure wouldn't give any of them a Saturday game, based on the rule misapplication alone.

John Adams is about to appear on the postgame show, so we'll see what he has to say about those plays.

Yes, they are preselected for Thu/Sat & Fri/Sun.

Also, I believe when the officials get their opening round assignments they are given some kind of indicator as to whether or not they considered for an opportunity to be one of the 36 officials who will advance to the Sweet 16/Elite 8.

Hey, guys. Haven't been on here in years, but when I saw the shot clock play, this board was my first thought. I remember posting a hypothetical a few years ago about an NFHS game with foul, whistle, buzzer, shot, and what the ruling would be. Can't say I agree with the crew on the floor on this one, although if they judged the shot clock violation before the foul, they at least interpreted the situation correctly.

Like a decoder ring?

Any idea when they get their notice? Before the brackets are set? Afterwards?

That play was brutal.
