Go back and look at the pictures and ask Rut for help in telling those two apart. Burr, apparently, IS the new trail, although he is not visible in the video.

That's about as close as it gets...I've only seen one other time in an NBA game where replay was that close!

Until the last second you say...ironic given the thread.

I can't believe the officials didn't let the players decide this game!
Its sad that the players have the game taken away from them b/c of some stupid rule and the use of technology.
(Yes, I actually heard that argument today!)

Y U.P. Me too. I just don't know what I would rule in real-time.

What went through my mind when I saw this clip was that I bet NCAA officials across the land, unfortunately, had a very crisp pre-game that particularly dealt with officiating until the end.

Can you imagine a second crew not working til the last buzzer?

Also, not that it would have mattered had the attempt been released in time, but I see the slot signalling a three. When I paused the clip, the left foot is definitely crossing the inner-most 3-point arc.

Bryan Kersey had the initial call, as well as the video review. He had the shot but not the red backboard light, based on his stance/view. Using the buzzer alone makes it a difficult call.

Y.U.P. That would have been ugly. At least the Big East deal didn't cost somebody a tournament bid, and pretty much died since the crew didn't work again and St Johns got beat the next game.
