PC or Block?
 

Tom O'Neill was the Lead and called this a PC foul at the end of the Missouri State/Illinois State game on Friday. I think he got it exactly right. Defender gets LGP and slides to maintain it and doesn't initiate contact. It's certainly not a block. Does it look like a good no-call to anyone?

It's the last play of the highlight at about 43 seconds.

That's why Tommy gets the big bucks, after a few viewings it looks like the right call to me.

It is not a no-call. It looks like a PC foul to me. The defender is retreating. The defender takes the contact in the chest (not required by the way) and the offensive player is not airborne. Looks like a good call and in these cases I like to default to the foul on the offense when the ball handler has no where to go. And this was not a very difficult call.

Peace

Of course it's the correct call.....
 

It says so right in the article! ;)

"The key play of the night then came on the next possession on a drive to the basket by Eldridge, the MVC Preseason Player of the Year. On a set clear-out for Eldridge, Fuehrmeyer cut the fellow senior off, held position, and drew a charging violation on Eldridge for his fifth personal foul."
