VIDEO REQUEST - OU/WV - Blocking Call - 2nd Half, 5:59 remaining
 

WV In transition, looked like the OU Player had position, outside the RA. Call was a block.

Thoughts?

Here it is...

Charge. I was hoping for a close one.

Looks like a flop to me. No whistle would be best, but many believe in penalizing the bad actor with a blocking foul.

Fantastic job by the Lead for holding his preliminary signal. This could've easily have been a blarge situation.

The one thing I don't see here....is a flop.

thinking charge here.
Lead did a great job getting back, but maybe hold up so he doesn't get behind that last offensive player...mighta had a better look. didn't matter though. C came out strong and Lead did well to hold his prelim. no matter what the call was. i wonder if they agreed?

sidebar: someone remind me please...difference in NCAA vs. NFHS for setting LGP in relation to the shooter?

Yea, that's not a flop.

No difference. Must be legal before the shooter goes airborne in both rulesets.

Wasn't there a recent rule change in NCAA that related to the shooter beginning or gathering for the shot? Or did it change to airborne? I thought I recalled something along those lines....

It was airborne, then upward motion, now back to airborne.

What was the point in trying to take downward motion away?

I have a block here. It looks to me like the defender isn't quite facing the ball handler until he's airborne. He's ever so slightly turned before them. Take a look at his feet in relation to where the WV player is coming from
