Texas A+M / UNI

[BigCat]

[QUOTE=packersowner;984806]Since the last post seemed to go off topic, I'll try to start something different here.

1. The last possession UNI had in the backcourt, where the player got trapped in the corner. Really tough play to officiate in my opinion. The C came down to help, Trail came across the court to get into position. I think there was a bump that was missed as the UNI player was going out of bounds, but wow, that was intense and hard to call anything one way or the other. Any thoughts on if this could have been handled any differently?

My post is below:

The player should have stood tall/strong with the ball instead of leaning away and allowing the trap to close/get tighter. He should have stepped through the trap strong. Then maybe there is firm contact and he gets a call. At the very least, throw the ball the length of the floor…..

Traps are hard for us/me because you have multiple hands/bodies to look at. There are also feet involved. I know at times I get too close trying to see the hands and lose track of the feet. I don't think the officials could have done anything different on that play. There was a slight bump but not enough to call imo. The player just didn't handle it right.
