Singler Elbow to Hansbrough's Jaw

Heard on the grapevine that there was disagreement among the officials as to the proper treatment and you can see confusion when they were about to bring the ball inbounds - originally looks like one of them was going to take it in on the baseline then moved to half court. By that point, Duke was lining up to take it in - rather than drag it out any further the official who knew the right way rolled with it....

That's interesting. 2 Final Four officials and a 3rd who is a D2 conference supervisor. If those 3 can't come to a consesus on the right thing to do no wonder we have so many arguments in this forum. 😎

If that is the case - then I would imagine that there will be loss of game(s) or game fees involved because you just can not kick a rule like that with out some consequences

If IMO it was accidental (as in his hand slipped off the ball when he was trying to pull the ball away) I've got nothing?

There is no way this is accidental...it has to be a technical foul.

So, is Bob a Cretan or a liar? I'm so confused.

Oh. Come. On.

Always listen to Bob. Then Bob says: "Never listen to Bob." What are you going to do?

See? It's worse than the liar claiming that "everything I say is a lie."

I know, you didn't have to spell it out. Dan_ref hasn't been around in a while to need it.

OK, but I wasn't responding for your edification (alone). 😀

I asked the NCAA about the situation in this game and the response I got about what transpired was this ...
" The explanation received was that a CLASS A technical foul was assessed for vulgar language and the ball was improperly put into play.

Obviously, the flagrant foul was missed by the three officials but seen by many others."
