I watched the tape very carefully, a few times, BEFORE I started this thread. What you have written is NOT true.

Dorsey's right hand never left the ring and he slapped the board with his left hand only.

PS The T against Syracuse last year was not for hanging on the ring. It was for slapping the backboard.
Yes Nevada, I am going off memory and one SportsCenter replay...but my initial reaction was that I wasn't surprised that he didn't get T'd up

Some plays we see in the NCAA could make moving up - if that is what you want to do - a tough nut to crack. "sigh" I guess we have to remember "do as I say, not as I do" and call these plays.
You're right Tome, it's hard when you go to a camp in front these same guys and a play like that happens and you wonder "should I call it or am I gonna get a lecture on Game Interrupters".
