Which would have been called if he hadn't pushed off

However, if the defender was legal, the push off should have been called.

"Coach, I was ready to call block until your guy pushed off".
If the defensive player does not initiate illegal contact, by rule it cannot be a defensive foul.

How can you possibly advance to the NCAA tournament as an official and NOT have game awareness that instinctively causes u to look at the bench immediately after a last second basket. It's so simple!!! It's unbelievable that not only didn't he look...HE RAN RIGHT PAST A COACH WHO SIGNALED AND CALLED FOR IT....
