This post makes no sense. The arm bar is an automatic foul in NCAAM just like the women’s game and high school. “100% conviction” doesn’t mean anything.

And before people hop in and say “Well, that’s not a call you want to make in the men’s game” I’ve seen multiple officials in this tournament apply 10-1-4 by the book. The “it didn’t affect the play” line of thinking is the entire reason that we have these automatic fouls now.
