Stetson @ FGCU (Video)

#1: I'm cool with the foul. Possession consequence on that one. Slight shove allowed the FGCU player to get the ball.

#2: Only whistle there should've been a travel. Otherwise, play on.

The defender hits his shooting elbow, that can't be ignored.

I agree 100%. I really like the cadence of the whistle on this play. IMO the official waited to see if it impacted the shot attempt and only came with the foul when the attempt was missed.

Good get by L. It was subtle, but it was just enough to get white the rebound.

I don't like the idea of waiting til it's missed, but I don't think that's what he did. He processed it and decided the shot was affected by the contact on the elbow.

On video, the travel is clear to me, he clearly has the ball with his right foot down then replants it on the spin. I probably call that travel if I catch it in my high school games, but with that much banging going on, I'm probably not going to catch it live while watching the battle to make sure no one gets hurt or something.

I see an illegal screen.

Contact with the arm on the shooter....while the ball is still in his hands....is a foul no matter what. Make or miss.

Absolutely, that is why it cannot be ignored. He clearly misses badly as a result. We cannot pass on this even if the contact is slight. He did not overshoot the basket completely on his own only 5 feet away.
