Right. And that’s why all three officials advanced to the Final Four, when no other regional final crew did so.

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

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.

I haven't felt this satisfied in months.

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.

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.

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!

You sum up perfectly what is wrong with a lot of officials.
