Yep. I don't think we'll see them on Saturday. Too bad, Corbett is a past Nat'l Champ. official.

That's the problem with having NBA guys working NCAA games...that play would be completely legal in a pro game.

That play was brutal.

And the fans on ESPN.com all think now that the officials screwed that up.

What a shame. This was all set up to be a great smackdown of the in game announcers blatently not knowing a rule and making themselves look silly. They were so strident about what they thought was a wrong "lane violation" call, that it would have really been nice to see them have to eat their words.

But, of course, the crew has to go and make a brutal OOB call, so that now they get to acknowledge the tv guys blew it on the lane violation stuff but still were right about the crew. Bummer.

Do they no longer already preselect the 1st two rounds? It used to be that the officials would know ahead of time if they were working one or two games.

No idea. But I sure wouldn't give any of them a Saturday game, based on the rule misapplication alone.

John Adams is about to appear on the postgame show, so we'll see what he has to say about those plays.

The Studio guys made it clear this was a lane violation.

And they are talking to John Adams now.

Peace

Also John Adams came in and set everyone straight with the lane violation calls. They talked to him live and he commented on the rules. Then again it was on TruTV, so many might not have seen it.

Peace

Too bad they didn't ask him about the play at the end of the 1st half.

What did the commentators say in response? I was away from the TV and missed it.

First, Adams said the violation was on the player in the first space who stepped in slightly early. Then, they pointed out the guard who came from outside the arc and asked wasn't that a violation too. John didn't even see that until they pointed it out. "Oh, oh, yeah, that too" is basically what he said. That didn't come off to good.

He then said he didn't know which one they called. Hell, the C was pointing at the kid and the path he took.

"Oh yeah, now I see it."
