I know what a crew saving call is. This play does not fit into the definition. I would be willing to bet that if you asked the T and C about this play, they as others on this forum have said, would say the shot was blocked cleanly and the contact afterwards was incidental or exaggerated by the shooter trying to fool an official into making a call. In fact, I would also be willing to bet that if you polled a group of D1 men's officials, you would find a pretty even split amongst those calling this a foul and those letting it go as incidental, and that a majority of those who think it is a foul would not come and get this from the L because they would not feel they have a clear enough look to come that far on a call.
