Indiana/Michigan block/charge

For the last one, just call the travel and block/charge becomes irrelevant.

If only there was a travel there.

Left foot looked like it was lifted prior to the dribble ... by the book, a travel.

I really think the book needs to be changed.

This would never be called a travel at this level and it doesn't serve the game well to even think of it as so.

(If you can't tell, I'm never overly impressed with those who can find nitpicky travels in videos like this.)

BTW, on the last PC, the way Mike Eades signalled is how I do most of my PC fouls.

What does this even mean? Especially the second part. He either moved the foot early or he didn't. You're almost quoting Bob Knight now.

"If they're not gonna call it, they should change the rule.

If we're going to stop the game 15 times to "catch" a minuscule infraction of the rule that we can't even agree about watching video after the fact, IMO it doesn't serve the game well to even look for it.

YMMV, but I wouldn't even be seeing this travel (if it indeed exists) -- it would simply never enter my mind.

I didn't think it was that controversial. I might not see it live but once he said it was a travel, I watched it one more time and decided he was right. It wasn't really that close either.

If we're not to stop the game for infractions of the rule, why are they rules?

Got to agree here also.

So when you say this travel, still not sure what you mean. What it he had lifted the pivot 6" off the floor before the dribble, rather than 1/2" ?
Where do you draw the line?

Is traveling headed in the direction of 3 seconds?

Preach.
