Roundball, many things aren't done correctly in a college game on TV. That doesn't mean we aren't supposed to do it right. They walk and talk, in men's games, all the time and that isn't correct (I don't know about the ...SEC).

Putting the hands on the hips looks weak and I can't believe anyone at the varsity level would do that at the spot of the foul, especially when selling a block/charge call.

You gotta bang a block at the spot!! Report it as it should be though...imo
