He said that many officials do no make that call.
As I stated before, I disagreed with him.

So as a result you shouldn't either? I'm sure that logic would go over well with his officiating supervisor.

Pivot foot up + pivot foot down = travel.

I'll let the almost-simultaneous catch/hops go. They're most likely legal...if it's so close that you need slo-mo replay to tell...I'll give the benefit of the doubt.
When I can clearly see a catch first, then hop, I'm calling it. They're travels. It's obvious.

If my partner tells me he's letting them go because most officials don't call them, I'm telling him he needs to work with better officials.

I am seeing a mostly legal move. If it is so close, I am not calling a travel. It looks to me like the catch is while the feet are in the air. But it is so close that it is really hard to tell. It better be executed worse than that to call a travel to me.

Peace

Agreed, he'll probably have me paying close attention after a couple of these.

In several of the plays, he clearly catches the ball with both feet on the ground and then hops. Yes, those are clearly travels and should be called.

I wouldn't be surprised if his supervisor is one of the "many" officials that wouldn't make that call!!??!!
