The one that stuck out for me was Beilein saying he teaches the contact. I know we say it and we definitely can tell it happens but that's really telling.

I had a GV (yes, girls' varsity) game this season where I hear the coach tell his kids during a time out, "You've got to get into them! Bump the cutters when they go through the lane!" Coming out of that time out the first girl on the other team to pass through the lane gets chucked...hard. And yes, the whistle blew.

It's like the "hot stove" touch on the dribbler for NCAAW. It's in the book. We see it every preseason in our officiating video. Of course if we actually call it, the coaches get ticked off.
