In the UK vs UC game on Saturday night Jay Bilas got one right there was a palming call made in the front court with the UK player moving North to South and he hitched the ball up and took off tothe basket the official made the call.
Bilas actually said (when reviewing the play) "lets see if he gained an advantage".
clearly the advantage was gained and Bilas said so.
Miricales do happen.
Spanarkel said something very similar when Downey was called for that carry at 1:06 remaining in the 2nd OT of the Wake/WV game.

He and Ian Eagle should be the lead team in my opinion. Although, I do think that Bilas does a nice job. Did you catch the clip on PTI in which he picked against Duke coming out of the Regional? He said that Mich St. and Kentucky are big, physical teams and that would probably be too much for Duke in those two games. Nice to see someone be analytical and fairly objective about their school.
