Yeah, but ...
 

Anything remarkable here from your official's set of eyes?

Rousing dunk

No foul?

no

I got no foul. His momentum took him out of bounds trying to avoid the defender. I got a good no call on this one.

BTW, he was an amazing player in HS. Glad to see him having success.

Peace

I don't see a push, but the defender's arm did swing down on the shooter before he returns to the floor.

Not saying it's certainly a foul, just throwing the idea out there.

Fine...I'll say it.
 

I mean, it wouldn't be the basketball forum if nobody brought it up...

He travelled before the dribble. :rolleyes:

I'll be more certain -- this is not a foul.

I do recognize that HS games are called differently in different parts of the country -- and so this type of play might be a foul somewhere. But, in NCAA -- it hardly even raises an eyebrow.

I would not call this a foul. He was already going to the floor. The defender didn't put him there.

I am not calling that in a high school game at any level or anywhere. Players that play above the rim attack the basket like this often.

Peace

If you want to be precise....

Twice. Then again when he picked up the dribble.

It is hard for a defender to guard a player who gets extra latitude in moving the feet.

Looks like the NCAA-M POE on travelling is working nicely. :D

They've always been there, and, given what I've seen so far this year, many of the officials are having no trouble identifying them and calling them.

That said, two of them in this video were really close and I wouldn't fault any official for not calling them. One was pretty obvious, however.

Offsetting Penalties ??? ...
 

The travel to start the drive should have been called. There was a second travel, watch the pivot foot. And yes, the player's momentum did take him of bounds, but it was the contact that took him to the floor. Probably a foul in my high school game. I'll let you college guys call whatever you want in your college game, as this was. College stuff is definitely out of my wheelhouse.

Give these officials a kewpie doll!
 

Thank you, Alton and Cam.

Agree, and I like the way you stated it. If this was a 15 ft. jump shot, this much contact on an air born shooter would have generated a foul call. Again, in a high school game.

I bet the college players or coaches don't expect this to be a foul.
