UIC and leadership told me after the game it was a call I should have passed on. I still respectfully disagree. (Irish, this is the tournament on the East Coast where you and I met in person for the first time.)

You called INT because you considered the slide late, but would also endorse an INT call if the runner didn't slide and was hit by the throw?
