This will ONLY be interesting for the followers of the Big 10 in the early 90's.
Playing in a tournament a certain player drove down the lane into, literally, the open arms of Steve Scheffler (Center/ Purdue) As the player left his feet for the lay up, Mr Scheffler wrapped him up in a bear hug around the waist. SO there is this unknown player, about 18" off the ground, being held there as he hung in place by Mr Scheffler. Play stops, and both players look at the official and say "Well?" Mr Scheffler said "He isnt big enough to knock me down" The unknown player, was very scared the Mr Scheffler would squeeze tightly. The official just had a deer in headlights look. No call, count the basket. On the next possession Mr Scheffler said, "Next time, I'll just foul you!" I can neither confirm nor deny that the player never drove the lane after that.
