Here's the link to the 7A game: 2013 FHSAA Class 7A Girls Basketball Championship: Buchholtz vs Nova (Event): Florida: PlayOn! Sports

Watching the 7A - why did R point direction to start game prior to toss?

Here's all I will say. I watched it live. It was truly wild.

I was able to see a replay of the final foul that was called frame by frame. The shooter was clearly fouled by one player and an argument can be made...by a second defender as well.

I won't comment on what occured after the whistle, but it is definitely worthy of discussion. -BZ

Well, then we know if jar had been working that game he would have made sure a multiple foul was reported.

I mean, what other rules do you think they ignore?

Your recently elevated status does not excuse you from signaling your ironic intent in some conventional fashion, e.g.,

I'm not seeing how the Lead has a whistle on this play. The C is right there and the Lead needs to let the C decide whether or not any foul is committed.

So let me see if I've got this right......in a tied, OT state championship game...a player is obviously fouled in the act of shooting, and people in this thread are criticizing one of the TWO officials who called a foul. The call was correct, but people are criticizing who blew the whistle?

Interesting.

Which player "clearly" committed the foul, #20 or #12? I'm guessing #20, but for the L's sake I hope it was #12.

Frame by frame showed #20 was the more obvious (as is visible at regular speed replay as well).

Reasonably common mechanic. Don't know if it's specifically required / desired in FL.

We ALL use that mechanic here in FL. Well, maybe THAT GUY doesn't.

It's funny -- I quit using that mechanic about 2 years ago. Haven't used it since.

I just quit midseason here. I'll probably use it for YMCA stuff, but I figure all that gets settled during warm ups. If they're warming up wrong, I fix it and we move on.

I stopped using it too. Seemed overly officious...

... and you're striving for... just the right amount of officiousness?

Sorry, pet peeve.
