I have nothing conclusive either way about the desire of the NCAA rules makers. |

I personally do not care about who was on the floor and what their ranking was. That is not my concern. I am suggesting where is the rules support to call a foul for players simply falling. Was this not during a rebound? Peace

Just admit it, Nevada. It's ok. We all know that, cosmetically, you have to call the travel in this instance. I understand why you have to call the travel, but let's stop pretending and hiding behind what we don't know about what "the NCAA desires" as far as rules go. We know the rule. A player lying on the floor does not have LGP. We also know that if an offensive player is put at an obvious disadvantage by a player not in LGP, it is normally called a foul. By the book, it should have been a foul. But not everything on ESPN primetime is done by the book. No? |

Nevada already gave us a rule reference stating that a player on the floor does not have LGP.
Do you really need a rule reference stating that if a defender displaces an offensive player while not having LGP a foul should be called? |

Well played, Nevada. One of your best arguments yet. Surprised you didn't call me a spineless moron this time, though. |

I'm not positing that the player on the FLOOR (the one who did not have LGP) was fouled, but rather that he DID THE FOULING. |

He has not once done anything in this thread but explain or ask for of the current interpretations. You on the other hand have used the hyperbole to justify your point of view by talking about the team rankings and who was watching on TV. I think he has completely addressed you respectfully and tried to answer your questions (as have I). If anyone has tried to have a rational discussion it was Nevada and me. He just pointed out what might be your motivation after you want to argue over language which you have yet to show or prove. Peace

I am not a big Duke fan, but my opinion on this topic has nothing to do with the teams. I would say the very same thing if this was Alphabet soup U vs. Another Alphabet soup College. I see nothing (still) that suggests there should have been a foul, other than who you think was involved. Please feel free to correct me if I am wrong. Peace

Or try this: The ball is going OOB and A1 dives in an attempt to save it. He is not able to control the ball, but is able to knock the ball into open space in an inbounds area of the court. A1 ends up lying face down on the floor with his body half inbounds and half OOB. B2 was standing nearby and now takes off running after the ball at full speed. He trips over the leg of the prone A1 and falls down. Is that a foul on A1? Or even simpler: A1 is able to gain control of the ball in the above situation and manages to remain inbounds. However, he is prone on the floor. B2 who was also pursuing the ball, but got there a clear second later than A1 now reaches the scene and trips over A1 and falls down. Is that a PC foul? Yes, I think that we need further clarification because it is doubtful that the play ruling which I cited in post #15 is to cover all situations in which a player is lying on the floor. Particularly, I find the situations that I just posted above to be outside the scope of the approved ruling. Last edited by Nevadaref; Thu Jan 29, 2009 at 01:16am. |

In that case I'm bending the rules and I'm going to either call a block if I feel it is warranted or if it is incidental/accidental contact which I completely thought it was then I'm going to ignore the travel. Yeah that's right, ignore it. Let them play on. I felt there should not have been a whistle in the Duke-WF for either foul or a travel.
