In a postgame interview, the player admitted he should have shown better sportmanship and not dunked the ball.

The things I miss when I'm on my way to work...

Hopefully APG or I can get to this by morning but...wow. To echo what JRut said earlier, I don't care what call is made on that drive but someone has to have a whistle on that contact. I'll give the ISU HC credit. If that's me, KU might have won the game right there with the extra two FTs from the T I would've picked up.

I've always felt no-calls like that one have a trickle-down effect into H.S. Some officials at lower levels justify adopting the "let the kids decide the game" mantra after seeing these at the college level.

Clear player control. Was watching it in a restaurant and immediately said, "why didn't he call a charge?" And then the phantom foul call he actually made. Sorry, but if I'm critiquing the crew, I would be all over them about this.

KU was down by 5 with under a minute and traded fouls and 3 point shots for (2) free throws. As often happens, it worked and will continue to work until they change that rule. It wasn't like ISU couldn't shoot free throws -- they made all but one down the stretch. And their defense wasn't horrific -- 2 three point shots by KU were with guys all over them.

I am really glad he acknowledged that fact. Class for him to do that in a national interview. He is a kid so I can see his thinking at the time, but he admitted it was not a good thing.

Peace

I'll just say I've never been a big fan of the floor mechanics I see from officials in Big 12 games.
