I think it is difficult to impossible to say what one might have called or not called when one watches a play in real time after watching that same play in slow motion.

The question is, after seeing the slow motion which proves the violation, are you still saying this travel should not be called because it

"isn't obvious enough?"

Some will not call traveling unless they're getting frequent flier miles. :0

I can tell you, after watching this in full speed, I would have called it. Is it possible my opinion is shaded by having watched the slow motion? Sure, but it looks pretty obvious to me

Wait til next season! More NBA principles will be added to the NCAA game...

Yes. Call the obvious all the time.
