Care to expand on the discussion that took place at the meeting, what happened with the officials who kicked it, etc

We reviewed the play and discussed the issue at hand and used it as a teaching moment. No discussion or explanation was had about any ramifications for the officials who refereed the game.

The only explanation I see is they probably all get in the dressing room and say to each other, "you waved that off, right?". "I thought you did." "Huh?" "I think we just f'ed up." |

The officials names were never given nor was the video shown. We discussed the play as it was officially reported and what should have been done.

Late to the party but I haven't had time to be on here recently and I happen to have a game tonight at the school where this occurred.
Obviously, I am in the same association as Grunewar and also attended our meeting the other week where we discussed this. The main takeaway was that crew missed several opportunities to get together and get this right. We all have brain farts and can kick a rule but there was an evident lack of communication and coming together that could have saved the crew from this unfortunate incident. Names were not mentioned and as expected nothing was discussed about any possible repercussions. I will say that I have since found out who all 3 officials were. I've worked with each of them and 2 of the 3 are state level HS officials. One has worked some D1 men's and another who has worked some level of NCAAW. It will be very interesting to see how this plays out in terms of post-season assignments from our association. |

A technical foul for...?

It's a hypothetical T to ask about how upset he gets about other rule issues that are actually quite common.
I had a boys game last week where we had two quarters where we were going to resume play with .9 second on the clock. One was the 4th quarter, with three free throws for the visiting team trailing by 3. We gathered to clarify, just to be sure, that the ball could be caught and shot. The coach also asked, just to make sure. The defense got the rebound anyway, so it didn't matter.

I had one with .3 remaining and the offense ran the perfect play with the lob. The offense about 3 feet away caught and shot. I had the whistle before the ball got to the rim. If these guys deserved to be fired do I deserve a raise? Maybe not because I thought of this thread before the play began. You guys might have saved me from getting fired.

The clock operator is also an official, and is the alternate should one of the 3 floor officials be unable to continue. Therefore, the clock operator also wears a uniform, including the striped shirt. That is why the article author noted that there were 4 men in stripes.

Don't you have more important things to do like parsing the rules for Filipino Basketball Association 3 on 3 midget contests? I know Cecil gives gives priority in varsity assignments for being able to recite such nuggets of wisdom.

When you become a college official, only then concentrate on college rules and mechanics. Same advice for FIBA, the NBA, WNBA, etc. It's way to early to think about situations you will be facing working an NCAA Final Four game, an Olympic final, or an NBA final. There's absolutely nothing wrong with having goals, but take it one step at a time, don't jump the gun, pick your favorite expression.
