Shoes

I wear New Balance mainly because I have a wide foot and it is the only shoe I can get in my actual size (11). I order them in 4E width. Also, the NB store by me gave $10 off for officials.

Well, then, my interpreter said something very different than your interpreter. It may or may not be true, but that is what we were told at our meeting.

I will actually give two hands pushing while lifting up my leg (I know, an unapproved signal) so the player and coach know why I called what I did.

Ugh

The real problem this year, as I see it in Illinois, is that we are supposed to T up the coach with no warning when he is out of the box. I have not seen it happen yet. Anyone else?

Timing Question

Guys, at what time do you usually invoke 3.4.3? Basic example.

Team A is winning 20-18 with 2 minutes left. The clock is running. Team A commits a false start. Are you going to start the clock...

Once he crosses the LOS, I do not think he can run back and throw a pass. That is the problem and why he is not a passer.

The man on the phone says that they clarified it with the NCAA, he even quoted the rule to me.

Yes, he went to his right foot as he spun, but the left foot did not return to the floor before he shot the ball.
