This is the part that I particularly don't like from him and Higgins. A few years ago in the NIT championship one of them missed an obvious elbow on an inbound play. The opponent retaliated with a push for which an intentional foul was whistled.

Position is the key and look what happens when you are out of such position

My version might be grammatically wrong, but at least it sounds better in my opinion

They missed a call...badly...at the end. There's no real excuse and I guarantee that no one will feel as bad as the guys that missed it. Before that it was just a typically officiated Big East game imo. The officiating wasn't a factor up to that point.

I call softball, and just lurk over here. My question: if you had gotten the out of bounds call would you give a technical for a player who was throwing the ball believing the game to be over?

Maybe DOG. If the OOB violation was called the player reaction probably wouldn't have followed. If he was protesting a call then no doubt, but in this situation I wouldn't penalize him with a tech.

DoG? You mean the warning? Which of the four does this fall under?

That final 20 seconds was horrendous.

1. On the drive, I definitely think there was a foul on the defender. Hands and arms were nowhere near vertical.

2. I think there should have been a whistle on the missed free throw and rebound. I think the reason the rebounder falls out of bounds is due to a push from the defender.

3. I think the initial play on the deep pass was fine. But the missed travel AND the out of bounds was BAD. He (the player) was out of bounds far enough that both the lead and trail could of gotten it. Plus the center has a clear view of the player and can see the steps.

How come the talking heads at ESPN or the other clown colleges never pick out the less controversial quote as their headline? As in:
NCAA official head: "One bad call doesn't knock a guy out of the NCAA tournament."

Hell, if everybody who had a badly missed call in D1 this year was eliminated from the tournament, they wouldn't be able to cover the preliminary games, let alone the first round.

Yes, they booted the hell out of the call. But please try to keep it in perspective.

I wouldn't call anything in the situation. It shouldn't be a DOG so I don't know why I wasn't thinking. I guess the fact that he threw the ball into the air thus delaying any such action until the ball is retrieved is what I was thinking about

Makes sense.

Actually, a T would be for delaying the game by preventing the ball from being made live. There's no mechanism for a warning on this one.

That said, I wouldn't call this one either, unless he did it signficantly after I blew my whistle for the violation and it actually delayed the throw-in.

No...because he might have been throwing the ball in the air to try and waste the last 2 seconds on the clock. That's a fairly common tactic.

No. He thought the game was over and was excitied. No T.
