Superb L help on high screen (GONZ vs OR ST) (Video)
 
I called a similar screen in a girls varsity game a few years ago. 2-person, I was the lead opposite, and the player came out of my primary and I just had a feeling...
Fifth foul.

Home team hired us for this game and I haven't been back since. Shows the true colors of the people involved as it was absolutely a correct call. Oh, well.

And that is why teams should not be hiring officials. Too much conflict of interest. That job should be isolated to some degree from the schools/teams.

Actually, I'm fine with it. Too far to drive and it's always better to see someone's true colors.

Glad I got away from my part of the state that this was common. Never liked that part hanging over your head even when I ultimately did not care. But the conversation with the AD or after the fact was always uncomfortable because it was often not based on actual talent but what they though of you.

Peace
