I'm pretty sure what happened was the white hat blew the play dead even the Boyle County quarterback first tried to roll over on the ball.  It was an inadvertent whistle, and the down was replayed from the previous spot.  They gave no penalty indication, and the bag was placed at the previous spot. 

This makes sense.

The ruling was an inadvertent whistle. Under high school rules the team that maintains possession on the inadvertent whistle has the option of taking the ball at the spot of the inadvertent whistle or replaying the down. The choice made was to replay the down. 
 

An inadvertent whistle is one of the worst things that an official can do because it’s very preventable. Most officials are generally late blowing their whistle just to make sure that doesn’t happen. 

That just gets worse and worse then, because it's the action that screws Corbin over the most.  When your options are possession of the ball or 2nd and 30, and the official screws them over that badly.... wow.  

Also curious what happens to time on an inadvertent whistle.  Should they have tried to adjust back to the clock on the previous play?

Terrible. It wasn’t about whether Boyle recovered or not. In advertant whistle blew the play dead which kills the play immediately. Ref never needs to call another game. 

Because of one mistake?

On an inadvertent whistle the clock stops at the point in which the whistle was blown.

So it would have cost them some seconds as well.  Disastrous.

With that knowledge I went back and watched the signal and yes, it does look like he says inadvertent whistle, but I'm not much a lip reader.  I was trying to look up the signal for that as I don't know what it is, but I couldn't tell if the signal is that.  I will say I didn't hear a whistle at all, so it's hard to make a judgment on it.  

Sure couldn’t hear a whistle in the video and no kids on the field stopped. 
Pretty bad

 

What region officials called this one?

There's no way you were hearing a whistle on the video with the camera that far away and the crowd that was there tonight.  And the kids weren't going to drop as long as the ball was loose.  What if was not, was any kind of penalty. It had to be an inadvertent whistle. 

I watched the postgame on the Boyle coverage and their coaches said only 1 ref blew the whistle no others did and it is an inadvertent whistle and the by rule the ball goes back to the original line and is replayed. Sad.

Why was the Boyle coach in the middle of the field with the officials?

I wonder at what point the inadvertent whistle happen?

KHSAA owes Corbin a apology.

 

 

 

 

 

So does their offensive line on special teams.  If they don't get 2 extra points blocked, they are up by 1 after that last touchdown.  They still would have had to have scored even if they fumble on that bad snap.

An inadvertent whistle at that moment is pretty darn bad! Especially when it favors the home team against a team from several counties away

It had to be before the Corbin recovery, otherwise it would have just been the stop play whistle.

Momentum sure got an ice bath by a terrible official mistake.  Corbin players will remember that call the rest of their lives.  Boyle will try to dismiss it as the breaks of the game.

I’m a Boyle fan and I will say that is a hell of a way to lose.  If it were the other way around I would have been furious.  I was on the sideline and heard the inadvertent whistle although the ball squirted out from the QB.
