Check the play again.

The T had to look thru the dribblers' and defenders' backs to see what the C had coming straight at him.

Sorry if your video review capabilities don't include objectively looking at what each official can see given their positioning.

The lesson that John Adams learned from the 2010 Duke v Butler Championship Game was that call accuracy is almost exclusively dependant on official positioning. Per his review, when those game officials blew the whistle, they were correct 90% of the time. When they did NOT blow the whistle, they were 50% accurate. After evaluating the non-call plays again, he determined that the official did not blow the whistle because he did not see the play.

As a result, Adams was convinced more than ever that an official who cannot get into proper position, cannot get the calls right. Thus began the "end" of NCAA Tournament careers for officials that Adams felt couldn't run well.

Based on the garbage you just wrote you haven't even seen the play. But that's par for the course for you.

...he better have at least looked at the video.

#1. The Trail kept an angle to see between A1 & B1
#2. B1 never has his back to the Trail and for that fact neither did A1
#3. The C had Black #3 directly in his line of vision when he made the call
#4. A1 was going towards the endline, not towards the C when the call was made
#5. The Trail was about 5ft from A1 and B1 and the "foul" occurred at the top half of the free throw circle on the Trail's side of the court

But let's not have facts stand in the way of your smart-a$$ comments.

Kudos and good day to you Jack-wagon.
