Have shown to few refs, D1 and D3 and they passed on a call, again just everyone's opinion. It's too close.
Those D1/D3 guys are gutless if they're passing on it because it's too close...game ending or not. This one is a foul one way or the other...not incidental.

And while I think it was clearly a charge when reviewed in slow motion, it wouldn't suprise me to have a lot of refs call it a block in live action.
