It means he just made a blatantly false statement because Greene worked a regional final that year.

Actually, Greene's call was the correct call.

You're right. On the drive in to work this morning I remembered what I had pondered back then. It was that he did not get selected for the final four for the first time in many years that season. Did not make it last year, either. I apologize for the inaccurate statement. As to the call, we'll agree to disagree, but at a camp the following summer we broke down the play and the mechanics ad nausea. It took a while for the clinicians to convince me, but eventually I came to the realization that it was a block. Certainly as close to a 50-50 call there can be, I will give you that. If Tony rotates sooner and has turned and is standing still when the contact occurs, I believe the call, charge or not, would have been more credible. That's my biggest takeaway. But don't forget that my original point was that Tony handled the assessment of the technicals perfectly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

This, of course, has nothing to do with Boeheim's outrageous behavior, or the coach from PA.

Man this discussion is taking the cake for stupidity. A coach headbutts an official and the conversation goes to what ifs and what should haves to somehow justify the behavior, as if that is exucasble. Then we start drawing parallels to another T and how ALL t's should be administered because this one T was done so "perfectly".
Why does every post on this forum have to turn to fantastical what ifs and what I would do or they should have done. $h!t happens. Coach crossed the line. No excuse. End of story. A T called in a Syracuse game years ago has nothing to do with this.

And I'm also well aware of the world outside of this place but my only concerned in this forum is discussing the play from an officiating perspective. Again, I would think we could do that without conflating it with victim blaming. Quote:

i didn't make the OP and link the video because i wanted to report the coach to Law & Order SVU! i did it so we would talk about basketball situations. video is the absolute best tool for officials, and unfortunately, most guys still read from the case book every meeting and argue about where to have the end of the year chapter get together! but i digress.... i would have shared the video with or without the "headbutt" action. generating discussion from every aspect of this video to the initial call, to the technical, to even dissecting how the Center handled every second of that clip is why i shared it and why this forum exists (i hope). i login every day in hopes that every thread is meant to generate discussion and help us to stay actively involved in the rules and application of them during the season and never meant to ridicule officials, (even coaches or players) but rather point out areas that merit out attention. i'm not trying to call you out, but if the only thing you took away from the video is that the coach was out of line, that's quite obvious, and you're missing the point of posting. |

I am not going to defend this clown coach in any way and I will not blame the officials for anything, but I'll be honest. The first thing I thought when I saw the video was the Trail should have waited and let the Lead handle the technical first. I too think the Lead was going for his whistle to give the technical when the Trail stepped in. I'm not saying he deserved the contact from the coach or excusing anything, but I agree with Terp that he could have handled it differently.
Even when you feel like you do everything right in a situation, there is usually always something to learn from watching the video. |

It doesn't matter who gives this clown a T. Lead, center, or trail. He deserved one immediately, and if I'm the lead I could care less that the trail stuck him. I wouldn't even care if there were 3 whistles for a T on this play.
