Agreed, that is what I was thinking when I saw this play.

Play #2 I saw live and thought this was clearly missed. I just think a lot of officials simply give the benefit of the doubt for a touch by the defense and consider it a tip and never call the violation.

Peace

Agreed.

Play 1. Travel on #2, nothing on the dunk.

Play 2. It looks to me that the official got straightlined and didn't get a good look at the ball hitting the leg.

Should lead be calling this? And mirroring?

No. And no one should be using the "swirlie signal."

You tell Doug Shows he can't use the 'swirlie' signal.

I have no issue with the swirlie. Everybody knows what it means.

Everybody knows what it means when an official says "on the floor" too. Doesn't make it right. I just want to know the right signal (if there is one).

When I saw them mirroring the BI, the swirlie's and the Lead w/ his "honk your horn!" motions, I started looking for a disco-crystal ball to drop in to the screen.

I don't do college, so it doesn't come up all that often, but this is an honest question: What is the approved signal for BI and/or goaltending?

I think if it ever came up in a HS game, I'd probably reflexively do the swirlie motion, but I don't want to be "that guy" if it's a fake signal.

There isn't one. For me, after stopping the clock, point at either the offender or the basket, state "That's basket interference." and give the other team's direction/signal for points to be awarded.
