It is a foul when you invade someone's cylinder and you then make contact with them. That is also what the official called with his signal. I think it was a good call at any level, but the NCAA says these should be fouls because of the defender was invading his cylinder.

I don't think this is a cylinder play JRut.

JD's NCAA videos seemed to suggest that cylinder plays are for 1) elbows that occur when defender is in cylinder and offensive player makes a basketball play (doesn't apply to this play because of no elbow), and 2) plays where the defender is straddling the offensive players pivot legs and restricting movement (also doesn't apply to this play).

I think it's a foul, but a hit or a hold.
