"Do not follow the flight of the ball. Referee players"

I guess the Trail can do this in the women's game because GT and BI is so rare, but this would never work in a HS boys game or for NCAAM.

Also, I can think of one frequent situation when this instruction becomes very poor--a try near the expiration of the shot clock, necessitates that an outside official observe the flight of the ball to determine whether it struck the ring.

Be careful here. I thought the same thing in a high school girls game, until a three point shot at the buzzer touched a support cable above the backboard.
