Late To The Party ..
I think that I've got the "lingo" down now.
Intentional foul on play #4. A two arm push in the back of the opponent. Easy call. No question in my mind. This is not a basketball play.
Intentional foul on play #5 for excessive contact. This "clothesline" play is closest that I get to a flagrant foul. I wouldn't disagree with anyone who called this a flagrant foul, but I'm only going with intentional foul from my seat here in front of my monitor.
All the others are just "ugly" basketball. We see a lot of this in the small, rural districts that we service. Coaches need to put some "big" bodies in the game, don't have a large (numbers) male enrollment to chose from, and find that a few lineman, or linebackers, from the football team can sometimes do a pretty good job of clogging up the middle.
