Speculation on the discussion?

Every reply confirms my suspension that is regular housekeeping. I expect the C wanted to know if he called a foul before the T on the first play.

As unemotional we think Ts might be, we still are not happy that we call them. And we often forget everything else when we make that call. It is always good to just repeat what you just called to a partner so that you do not forget some specific information that would turn this into a correctable error or give the ball to the wrong team or place on the floor. It is always good to have some conversation to make sure you do not screw up a basic rule.

This play took place at the Oregon City "End of the Trail" tournament...a HS girls team tournament, but also a college officials camp. So it is HS ball played under NCAAW rules. I would bet several of my favorite beverages that the "discussion" was simply making sure that they administered the T correctly and went POI (throw-in on the endline) instead of at midcourt .

Probably just to confirm that the initial whistle was out of bounds and that it was not a shooting foul. Signal was pretty clear, but perhaps the other official missed it or was looking elsewhere.

May also be standard practice to make sure partners are aware before reporting to the table.

Edit: given what rockyroad shared ... that makes the most sense.

Agreed...that's the officials camp associated with the EOT tournament. Campers have to wear pants and that back gym is oh so fun to officiate in when its really hot in late June.

Glad when I work that tournament I get to wear shorts.

Yes agreed with what others (and you) were saying as they were getting together and discussing the order to shoot in etc...as its different than probably what they were used to.

I just love the "slamming the ball down" signal. Hopefully the NFHS will add this to their signal chart next year. That, and the "Frankenstein's monster over the back" signal.

Which is exactly why you get together and chat about these things before going forward

I noticed the "slamming the ball down" signal, too. I think it's in the book next to the "rapid slapping of the wrists" motion used by coaches to illustrate illegal use of hands.

And this must be one of those states where players have to be behind the division line for technical foul shots.

Stupid autocorrect. Although I thought I was going to get suspended for posting too many poor quality videos.
