Title: Aledo-College Station OPI Waived Off
Post by: JDM on December 23, 2017, 05:42:58 PM
Pass completed behind LOS was the explanation. Incorrect waive off in my humble opinion.

I think he was saying the pass was thrown behind the line, as it was borderline illegal forward.

That isn't what he said and it is no reason to waive off an OPI call anyway.  Call was good.  Waive off bad.

Given whatever he was chewing it was hard to understand much of what he said.

What is up with gum chewing by these Referees? As one I could not walk, much less than perform at a high level. LOL

The gum chewing is just another contributor to a bad day on the microphone game management today. But I guess all is forgiven when Royalty is in the house.

You can say what you want, but that was his 11th state championship and he will be there again next year.

Is the goal to work the most state championships or be the best official you can be? No one is infallible.

Honestly dumbfounded why that flag was picked up.  Fully aware of the white hat pedigree.  But that crew should have known better on that one.

In real time, it looked like the qb was beyond the los.   If the flag was for that and he was saying he was behind the los, then I understand.   Anything else and  I am confused also.

Flag came from deep official for OPI.

Should not have been picked up.

Looks like the Flank lost his place on the field.  The QB was very nearly across the LOS and the receiver was 4 yards downfield.
