Michigan vs. Louisville rebound action aprox 50 seconds left

[Adam]

23 was out of bounds on his own. Even if his teammate pushed him, he did it before getting any sort of push from white. I don't see a foul.

Agreed. It looks as though Burke and McGary push their own teammate before the L'ville player lands on Burke. By that time, we already had the oob violation, so the landing on Burke is ignored - unless someone wants to argue it is intentional or flagrant.

I agree with Adam and rocky.

I will say it was flagrant. He flagrantly obeyed the laws of gravity and refused to remain airborne.

Now, that's funny!
I always get a kick out of someone saying, "He defied the law of gravity!" Yeah, maybe for a moment, but gravity always wins in the end.

Wow, how does the C not have a foul there? The foul and OOB violations occur almost simultaineously. I would have thought it would have been worthy of a meeting of the two officials. In the end, the guy went OOB on his own and the foul on the LVille player had nothing to do with that. That had the potential to be a sticky call though.

Because the C, having a patient whistle, knew that contact had no effect on the play....no possession consequence. The player who rebounded the ball was heading OOB and waiting to let him do so was the right thing.

Good game management.
