On the 3rd play....If Lead doesn't signal a block call I think C and Lead would come together and C would want a charge. He definitely had a better look.

Even if the Lead didn't give a preliminary, they would be no "coming together". There would be eye contact, followed by the Lead taking the call.

#1: Maybe a foul, IMO. But Calipari yelled at his player for putting himself in that position. So I will defer to the judgment of the SEC official.

#2: Nothing. This is why patient whistles are so important. I'm going to tell you exactly what an observer would have said about this play if asked: "The ball went in the basket, and the game kept on moving". Whether some folks here like it or not, I've heard enough D1 supervisors, observers, and officials talk about plays like this. The defender flopped, he is not going to get a PC call on this play. But the defender also did nothing wrong to earn a foul call against him either. To me it was incidental contact. The loose ball immediately went into the hands of A1's teammate, who puts the ball in the bucket.

#3: That's an easy block call in today's NCAA-Men's. The Lead has to pick up B2's feet to ensure it's not an RA play. So when a defender moves his feet like he did right before contact, he is going to get a blocking foul against him.

Probably not.

1. Textbook example of a foul causing a violation. This is a foul every time.
2. Nothing in college, I'm ok with a PC in a HS game is your area calls it tight.
3. Block because of upward motion rule. In HS, I'm ok with the PC.
