If the roles are reversed, then it will have to be a play on, unless you are comfortable with your look and then I can only hope you will come save the crew......

One of my closest friends is an observer for the NBA ( BNR no wise cracks neccessary ) and he says with a secondary defender both C & T should get looks so they can have a whistle on this play.

Cam maybe this will be play of the year on the Reftown site ......
I do think there needed to be a whistle. However, I'd like to know what the C thought of it....or if the L was just slow to the whistle and the trail jumped him. I've have a few partners to do that to me every year. I think the T was the wrong one to come in and get this. He had the worst view of them all.

He was not the ideal official for sure, but it needed to be called. And if that is rare I am OK with the call.

Peace

Cam -

Yes we all have those plays where we are thinking WTH, because the whistle is coming from the wrong person, however I thought in this play his cadence was, "primary nothing, Holy Shoot we need a whistle" and then he blew.

I can accept that cadence from my trail......

And just anothet point regarding the C, how mant times have you seen an easy play, the you assume the primary will get and then they don't. And by the time you want to react it is too late......maybe that is what happened to C...just a thought

At the college level there are, in my experiences, far fewer crashes than at the HS level. It is an expectation to have a whistle, in my experiences, on crashes at the college level. The times we don't plenty of times I've heard from a HC, "you gotta call something on that play".

I think coaches at the college don't like seeing players on the floor as evidenced by institution of the RA. I don't think they want games with a bunch of "play-ons".

Agreed. I think she just didn't stay engaged with the play - was probably thinking "Oh wow...hope Bob (or whatever L's name is) gets that one."
