And I disagree with the headline of the web post...Poor mechanics didn't cause the ejection...I'd say poor game management was more to blame.

Causes <> Results

The end result of the officials mistakes was a coach's ejection. That is how my supervisor would characterize it also.

I tend to agree. Yes, could the coach keep a calm head? Sure. But I'd venture a large majority of coaches would end up getting a T here.

Do we miss calls sometimes....even if we're doing everything we should? Yup. But it's going to be hard for any supervisor to back his officials when a call is missed due to the absolute failure in the basic mechanics of the system.

1. I've got a common foul. Defender is a bit too aggressive and follows through with her swim move to front the player, but I don't see windup or impact. The girl goes flying cuz she's 70 pounds.

2. Really curious what the first whistle was. Looks like C is coming in with a late foul.

3. White #24 slamming the ball needs to be addressed one way or the other. Not really sure why she's slamming the ball down but there's no need for that.

4. Give the first T and get away. Don't go to the table right away if you have to go past the coach.

5. Technical foul on that dude's moustache.

That wasn't his fist, that was glare off of his head.

Yeah I guess that would be asking too much. It's nice to see a college referee having so much restraint with the second T though...

I know you're being sarcastic overall, but what makes you think he's a college official? His choice to purchase a shirt with side panels?

In NCAA women's mechanics the Lead has responsibility for that corner. Having said that we pregame that the Lead will not leave a competative match up in the post to pick up the deep corner. In that scenario the Trail needs to recognize that the Lead can't get to the corner and needs to pick it up.

The ball "slam" was nothing I'd bother with, to be honest. Not like it went 20 feet in the air and there was more important stuff to do.

(Like ejecting the coach and playing Captain Kangaroo at the town picnic apparently....)

He took a real hit in real estate in late 00's (is that how we identify that decade?).
