Announcers Said He Traveled

[OHBBREF]

when did we stop doing that?

Can someone explain how I got home last night?

How come nobody mentioned the call botched in the SIU-KU game? Julian Wright dunked the ball clearly after the buzzer but the officials still counted the goal. The before mentioned Jay Bilas even said that the ball was clearly still in his hand when the shot clock expired. It wasn't even a close call but it was blown.

Probably because nobody cares.....

You must not have watched the game cause Chris Lowery certainly cared. Dick Enberg & Jay Bilas also both agreed that the ball was still in his hand when the shot clock expired. The NCAA should care about obvious blown calls like that.

Yes, they missed the call. Got news for you. There ain't an official in the world that hasn't missed a call sometime. Shiznit happens. No need to puff up like an indignant little toad because of it.

I am sure it was addressed and dealt with. Just because we did not discuss it here, does not mean the play was not dissected.

Peace

Very good point. Hank Nichols could not have been happy at all. It would have been different if it was a bang bang call. But it was not even close. The 3 referees who blow that simple call should be left off the Final 4. I feel sorry for Southern Illinois. The outcome may have been different if not for the horrible mistake favoring the #1 seed. Kansas got several other breaks in that game. Cheap fouls were called on Southern Illinois on one end but they allowed Kansas to get away with fouls on the other end. It is very sad when the higher seeded team gets special treatment from the referees.

Dang it guys, we've been caught. bluenred has outed our secret. There's a vast conspiracy of officials, CBS, and the NCAA, to prevent cinderella from getting into her rolling pumpkin. This group keeps secrets better than CIA operatives and FBI agents. Now, if you'll excuse me, the US Marshalls are here to take me to my hotel room. I can't say where it is, but it may or may not have a red roof.

What an idiot.

Yeah, they missed the call. Now, Mr. All-knowing Fanboy, do you want to tell me why the officials didn't consult the courtside monitor to review the play and see if there was indeed a shot clock violation?

That one's easy:

Rule 2-5-3
The officials shall not use a courtside monitor or courtside videotape
for judgment calls such as:
e. Whether the ball was released before the sounding of the shot clock
horn.
