That initial contact isn't incidental because:
1. The players did not have equal positions.
2. The UNC player was displaced.
It is incidental because:
3. There was no advantage gained by the offense.

There is no way that the URI player committed a foul on this play. The URI player does not shove him at all. The UNC player was already diving for the ball, which makes him liable if he clips him, which he does. This should absolutely have been a tripping foul.
That should be a tripping foul all the time and it has been a POE the whole season.
If you would put your life on calling that mess vs. calling the tripping foul, careers don't last long calling the not so obvious vs. calling the blatant, out in the open, POE foul.
