Hold that whistle for a second for that dunk and then blow your whistle if you think it might have missed the rim. that way, if you are wrong, you aren't penalizing IU. if you are right, give UK the ball.
The way he did it, if he was wrong and it did hit the rim, then you have a jump ball, horrific result.
He got lucky because the shot wasn't off in time. He wasn't blowing his whistle there, but on hitting the rim. It was pretty clear that it did hit the rim.

I don't agree with most of what this post says, but I would like to ask about the NCAAM rule for using the monitor on such situations. This occurred with 2:02 remaining. I believe that OOB calls can only be reviewed under 2 minutes. What about shot clock violations?
Mods: Perhaps better to move this and the post above to a new thread.
