Winthrop vs. Coastal Carolina Officials' Error on FT? (Video)
3/8/15: Winthrop vs. Coastal Carolina, 2:30 remaining 2nd half, ESPN2.
CC player goes to the line for a 1-and-1, only the L signals "2". The player misses the first. No one in the lane moves. Then there is a dramatic pause, and finally the C moves in for a discussion, realizing the crew probably messed up. Brief discussion, announcer says, "that was a 1-and-1; it should be Winthrop basketball." Usual ill-informed chatter. I'm thinking since there was no team control when the error was discovered, the POI should be an AP throw-in. Winthrop had the arrow, but it appeared the officials awarded an ordinary throw-in because the arrow did not change after the throw-in. Did the crew handle this correctly? Seems like they didn't. One mistake turned into two. |

So this is not a case of one team being put at a disadvantage, but rather a ball being blown dead with no team control. But the bottom line is the same, AP throw-in.

Another crew that is fortunate to have been paid.
I find mistakes in the administration of game unacceptable. These aren't judgment calls. These are merely procedural methods which officals working at that level are required to know. If they can't put in the time to be properly prepared for their task, I am of the opinion that they shouldn't be doing it. |

The table did not flip the arrow

ESPN's graphic, below the clock, shows the Possession Arrow with Winthrop, who ends up getting the ball. I know the graphic isn't definitive evidence, but it's most likely accurate.

I was not aware that the player allowed the inbounds pass to roll untouched for a few seconds in the backcourt. The table crew correctly should not flip the arrow during this action and may just been a little late in changing it following the end of the throw-in. Having a few additional seconds may clear up this point for us. Alternatively, you could just watch the last minutes of the game and report back to us whether the table crew ever changed the arrow. There was only a little over two minutes left in the game. They may have missed it for the rest of the contest and not noticed if there wasn't a held ball. |

We are attempting to see if the crew has the arrow correctly set for the NEXT held ball. |
