Do you really think that somewhere is rule 4-35 it makes reference to "clearly down"?

Also, listen to the words they said, "clearly down before touching". Does that sound like something they got from the rule book or something that just got passed down to them or they just made up on their own? Player location doesn't fall under in the category of some obscure rule. That's something anybody past their 1st year of officiating should know by the rule book, not by hearsay, IMO.

This is something that is black-n-white within the rule book. Yes, during a game or in the locker room, you might get some mis-information. But once you've left the game and now get a chance to think about the rule, you're FIRST MOVE should be to the rule book, not asking for more opinions.

"Letemplay", please understand I don't mean to dis you with what I'm about to say, only use part of your post to make a point.
"That is how I would rule it, but have seen others say . . ." This phraseology is the bane of officiating. ![]() I hear this at a rules meeting and I outspokenly rebel vociferously without restraint in a near-out-of-control manner. There. Vent over. I feel only slightly better. ![]()

These others you see... ask them to return to officiating football, where their notions are correct.

In the NBA, a player may NOT be the first to touch the ball after going out of bounds if they are dribbling the ball or if they save the ball by controlling (throwing) it. If the player saves the ball by batting it, they MAY be the first to touch the ball.
That may be source of confusion for some officials and definitely a case where fans will think we rule a play incorrectly (much like a backcourt call with a defensive deflection even with the offense being the last to touch and first to touch).

Being my first year I tagged along with 3 veteren officials Friday night for a learning experience. Player A1 chases down a long pass as he was cherry picking. He saves the ball from going out of bounds. Runs back in bounds and scoops it up dishing it to his teamate for the layup. The crowd went crazy.
