Rut - The NCAA men-in-black are on to you now. Hopefully no one will be knocking on your door.

Back in the day........
 
Back in the Burr / Higgins / Welmer era, I think everybody would have alluded to what
has been said, 50 / 50 call, Kansas down call it a block. Not sure if that was Roger's thought process but I'm OK with a block on this play.

I personally liked this era ( art over science ), I also think coaches were comfortable with it as well....

Been through this before. Funny they allowed other videos to be posted on the exact play.

Peace

And I'm guessing that JC Collins and the committee agreed with "block" as well.

Or that it was too close to criticize the call that was made in real time and that the rest of the performance warranted them continuing . . .

Exactly. While I may disagree with the call on replay, I can't say that I'd have done any different at the time. It wasn't obvious and a decision had to be made and he made a reasonable decision.

Gimme a break, fanboy with 28 posts in four years.

Lol let me guess you feel like you are better then me because of your impressive post count? Sorry some of us have kids, jobs a wife and don’t sit on the couch in our underwear eating Oreo ice cream and flexing because of our huge post count

My first ignore on here. I have no problem fighting with someone on here over a call or play, I will not however put up with anyone acting like they better then me. I have worked with way too many refs that told me they were 20 year vets or acted like they were better then me and I watched them piss themselves on the court.

You"ve had a lot of bad partners.

Block/Charge
 
They only issue I have with the call is that a very high percentage of contact of this nature is called a player control foul throughout the regular season. I think the block call has left some people surprised based on what has been historically called a charge in college basketball. I would love to hear the officials explanation of what he saw and why he chose to go with the block.

Glad that you join us here once a year, around the same time, to discuss the same thing over and over again (a call you didn't like). Welcome to the internet. Tell you family the internet says HI!

Randa16, it is not post count that's at issue but attitude.

This judgmental line from your post makes you sound like you think you are better than the refs you criticized: "I have to say it was one of the worst called games I have ever seen."

That is not productive and doesn't contribute to anyone's improvement, which is generally the purpose of this forum--our collective education.

This looks like an easy charge. I am actually shocked by the comments on that Adams tweet. All 50/50 block charges should be blocks? No way. Why would we want to encourage the offense to plow into established defenders? If you are going to call a block on this defender who was in the paint this entire play, who established and maintained LGP because he leaned slightly but NOT call a charge on an offensive player who saw the defender there and created all of the contact vs pulling up and shooting a jump shot, then that is what you are doing.

CJP Thu Mar 29, 2018 08:58am

Charge. Was not even 50/50. If it was, I would still go charge.
