Video Request Pitt vs Ohmah-Nebraska
 

Both clips in the second half 11:29 foul on Nix. It appeared that Nix was called for a block because he is a big guy but my first thought was that he had LGP.

Second clip 2:15. Wondering about the monitor use. There was no foul called on the play.

Who is broadcasting the game? I cannot find this game on regular TV.

Peace

The game was on the ACC network (Watch ESPN app or espn3.com)

You can go to the monitor even without a foul being called (saying this without having any idea what the play might have been)

I got the first one for you.

If I was forced to call a foul it was be on Black-32, but there really was not foul be either player.

MTD, Sr.

He does call a block. All I can figure is he waited to see if ball was going in on the shot. He may have called white for a bump on the shooter. There wasn't anything on the rebound.

Did the shooter get two FTs after this?

That is what I'm thinking...a block is not a typical call for a rebound.

AJ called a block on W25. He signaled a restricted area block, but I believe it was a block regardless because #25 turns his body into the shooter. But #25 was a secondary defender in the restricted area.

I have the full game downloaded and I saw multiple replays showing 25 turning his body into the shooter.

As for the play at 2:15 of the second half, they go to the monitor to see if there is cause for a flagrant or dead-ball technical on W25 after a travel is called on the opposing team.

He is not calling a foul on the rebound. He is calling a RA block.

Secondary defender grounded in the RA - correctly called a block. It just looks bad / confusing because it is called so late. However, a correct call.

The lead is caught in "no mans land" on the drive, or else he probably does a better job picking up secondary defender in RA.

The whistle cadence was awful late. And the point is not often done just for the RA by many officials. So I am not so sure that I agree that this was the reason, but if it was, then so be it.

And going back and looking at the video, the shooter was the guy going to the basket #44 and not the guy rebounding. But his signal and whistle confused the situation and the commentators as well.

Dale is 100% correct on this. I would have thought the C would have helped the lead on this play but the T's call is the exact play that are on the NCAA training tapes from JD Collins. The grounded secondary defender should be penalized under the current rules.

Dang, what am I, chopped liver? I beat Dale by a few hours. [emoji34]

Feeling like Rodney Dangerfield here. LOL

How are you doing, Rodney?

Sorry BNR, you are correct. I just thought Dale3 had a more complete answer for those that aren't quite as familiar with the RA rules.

By the way, Rodney is still one of my all time favorites. I pull up his old routines on youtube quite often!

Finally!!!!
 

Sorry this took so long. Had issues with the online app that was making this hard to capture.

IMO:

I'd have a blocking foul...regardless. If the B2 wasn't in the RA I'd have him turning into the opponent. Still you have B2 a secondary defender in the RA...who remained grounded...and the contact is more than incidental. I'd want the lead having first crack at this...secondary defender...in the paint...this is his bread and butter.

I've had assignor say to officiate this feet up in order to pick up the location of the secondary defender. Once you do that you can adjudicate the probably block/charge.....grounded/alighted...incidental/illegal.

It's a lot to take in but it's also why it's been harped that the outside officials must have opinions on these plays.

The Lead had started a rotation then backed out when the drive started. I think he lost focus on secondary defenders when he did that.

Before Dale comes in and steals my thunder. :D
