I agree, but with other factors it does -- shooter. I'm not calling a jump here, but if the official isn't going to call a violation then I'm okay with a jump. Anything to stop this kind of play from continuing.

Not the first time you've posted something from the MSU manual.

How is violently swinging elbows not undue roughness?

Not questioning that. It's the pull a held ball out of thin air quote.

My thoughts:

Stupid unnecessary 25 second intro. Wtf.

No way that can be a held ball. I see three cleanup fouls that could have been called which probably (except for the last one) prevent the elbow. For me you get one crack at getting the ball....any more and it's a foul. Especially in girls games.

Shot clock guy is 2 seconds slow resetting on the rebound. Probably par for the HS shot clock course.

INT for me, but it's close. Haven't seen a lot of video on the difference between INT and Flagrant at the HS level, for me could depend on game/player situation.

I agree, if we get the fouls first the elbow never gets thrown, and if it does it's easy to adjudicate since it's dead ball. Pretty easy intentional for the elbow, and I wouldn't be upset if it was called flagrant.
