Something happened between him and that official while the other official was reporting the original foul, but you can't really tell from what they showed. If the video experts can pull it up later it would be interesting to see.

Tom Hart was INCORRECT when he stated that the initial foul was called against South Carolina. It was against Kentucky, which is why SC shot 4 FTs.

I've gotta wonder if this is the quickest Caliper has ever gotten the hook.

No, it was against South Carolina. It was a rebounding foul.

SC shot 4 because of the 2 technical fouls.

No, he is correct. The official called the foul on South Carolina and pointed Kentucky's direction. Why would South Carolina shoot two free throws for a non-bonus foul? They shot four free throws because Calipari got two technical fouls.

Calipari was upset about a previous scrum on a rebound where there was no foul called. If it's the same one ESPN showed, there was no foul as the SC player displaced his teammate and no one from Kentucky.

How many HS officials would've allowed the subsequent action to happen without showing the coach the gate?

This is a great example of a great official doing what he had to do.

I stand corrected. I see that they did give the ball to kentucky after the 4 FTs for the 2 technicals.

A lot, unfortunately. And that's partly because some assigners (present company accepted) assume their officials didn't handle something well the moment they get a phone call.

I want to see film before I decide for myself.

Consequently, if an official complains to me about a coach and didn't issue a technical in the game, I'm not interested in that report, either.
