Is there really anyone who thinks they can see from the replay when the ball was held? I've watched it a number of times, and I simply cannot see much of the left hand or arm at all, in relation to when the left foot leaves the ground. (I'm putting to the side the possibility that it was called on the spin.)

Either way, a question and a comment. What the heck was Villanova doing going for a two with less than 10 seconds and two timeouts? Did Wright really plan on making two baskets in ten seconds, or think it was easier to do than making one three. O'Neill is going to get lots of heat, but at some point someone needs to acknowledge that bad coaching exposes you to bad breaks. The comment is that the whistle just came way too late. You are simply never going to be able to convince your average fan that the call was not influenced by the fact that the ball went in the goal.

Just a freaking bummer is all.
