1:08 1H UVa/ND. UVa defender "reaches in," makes contact with only the ball and pokes it away and is called for a foul.

I do not think that is why the foul was called. It appeared to be called for the body contact that loosened the ball.

Here is the play.

Play #5:

Nothing on the Va.-Pitt play. I'm not even gonna split the hair on whether the post defender moved toward the offensive player. That's great defense.

Nothing on the Va.-ND "reach in" play. Because, well, nothing happened.

Clear BI on the tugging-the-net play.

I'm not judging the call one way or another. I just don't agree with the Trail coming to get this play when the Lead was right there and the Center (his primary in transition) had a clear look.

That is why I post these plays man. I like it when people find little stuff that is not upfront in the video. I agree. I think the Lead or the Center had this play better. I see why he called it, but I think he was not the best person to call it.

Hmm. My first thought was that was a good get by the new T. The old T is starting to transition and is a bit straitlined, the C is all the way across the court, and T was following the play. I think he got it right, and particularly in crunch time, this is a great call. The bump causing the travel pretty much forced him to make it, I'm guessing it was going to be a play on if the ballhandler kept going up the floor. I liked his mechanics in that he closed down on it and was decisive and clear.

I think you can argue from that last angle that 33 White moved his torso into the ball-handler. I didn't really notice it during the broadcast.

Agree. Moving forward, knocks shooter off balance and causes him to lose the ball.
