After Thompson reviewed the tape and consulted with Dixon the conference handed down the discipline Cleveland said the three officials should have huddled after Dixon blew the whistle and then decided to give New Mexico the ball under BYU's basket The referees also could have given New Mexico a technical foul "We all know it could have been handled differently" Cleveland said "I have no problem with an official blowing an inadvertent whistle and making a mistake I make mistakes as a coach and the players make mistakes" The play gained Bigelow national attention Television stations repeatedly broadcast the incident Bigelow said all along he heard a whistle "Not too many people are going to understand or read that there actually was a whistle" he said "A lot more people watch ESPN than read this little news release" h e''''' mcrasltribcom CAL POLY PROVO — It turns out Mark Bigelow did not imagine hearing a whistle during the bizarre ending of Brigham Young's basketball game at New Mexico two weeks ago The Mountain West Conference announced Thursday that Bigelow was right in thinking a timeout had been called after BYU's Kevin Woodberry scored to tie the game with four seconds remaining Bigelow was called for a technical foul for coming off the bench to celebrate as New Mexico was advancing the ball up court The Lobos missed the two free throws but scored the winning basket off a long inbounds pass Commissioner Craig Thompson said the referee has been suspended from his next two Mountain West assignments and the conference tournament Thompson and BYU coach Steve
