Give it to me straight

Was the Foul Committed by Oden of the Buckeyes against Xavier Flagrant?

Also, would you have suspended the Nevada Coach for at least one game during the March Madness tournament after his attacks on the official working his game.

If these issues were discussed on the basketball Forum please direct me to the appropriate thread(s) and I will check it out

Thanks

Pete:

I do not think JR will mind if I jump in here and answer your question concerning the foul by Oden, espcially since I am an Ohio State University fan. No, it was not a flagrant personal foul, BUT it was an intentional personal foul. I was disappointed that the officials only called it a common (a personal foul that is neither flagrant nor intentional nor committed against a player in the act of shooting) foul. It was an ugly looking incident that cast an unfavorable light on OSU sports and in this case could very well affected the outcome of the game.
