The blind leading the blind

And the game commentators don't have a clue regarding the elements of that call. They immediately agreed that it was a backcourt violation.

Good post!

Miami was IN the game at the time and the REFS helped determine the outcome on that ONE call. It was all downhill from there, as soon thereafter Marquette built up a huge lead the Hurricanes just couldn't come back from the rest of the game (sarc).

I've had some miss my sarcasm before and wanted to ensure there was NO mistake this time!

A Forum member missed my hyperbole post earlier in the week. I guess that he was absent the day his high school English teacher covered hyperbole.

Wow. That's a big mistake of a pretty basic rule. No team or player control after the shot.

Does an official get dinged for an error like that? Has anyone noticed whether guys have been moving on when something like this occurs?

I was at this game and it was interesting watching everything as it happened just before a media timeout.

The C ran over to the calling official very quickly and they had a quick convo, whatever info the C brought was not enough for him to change the call, though it was obviously kicked.

The entire Miami coaching staff was waiting for an explanation, which was given, then Larranaga walked off in disgust.

That's what I saw on TV too, I was sure the C would've said something like "Hey, I didn't have any team control on that, are you sure?" and they would've fixed it. It's hard for me to imagine any reason why the call stood.

Thee is a case to be made that there was possession of the Miami player near half court. The problem is the angle does not help illustrate that fact. It looks like a miss but you cannot see if and when he might have had possession of the ball which is what would hinge on how good or bad this call was.

Peace
