But I think, IMHO, that no one would have had a problem with nothing being called here.

Same here. I can live with a complete "play on" on Play #1 and I think my D3 supervisors would agree with yours. What I obviously can't live with is calling something that really isn't even marginal at one end but then a kid ends up on the floor 17 seconds (3 possessions) of game time later at the other end and nothing is called.

Here's a question for you, BNR, and everyone else: Put yourself in the L's shoes on Play #2. You see that play coming at you and you see the contact an the kid hits the deck. Does the thought, "I need to put a whistle on this, even if it's late, given what happened at the other end" go through your head?

Regardless of the answer I can see how it might because I can't say I wouldn't go through mine.
