Kansas v Texas: Close Block/Charge Play

[SNIPERBBB]

I wonder why the L is there at all. NCAA-M mechanic?

Anyone tempted to call this a travel?

Back in the old days before video, it always seemed to be the cop out. Unfortunately, there are still 2 or 3 guys in my area who would not hesitate to call the travel here.

I was just kidding, actually.

There are situations like this where there is a legitimate travel as the player recognizes the imminent contact, but this isn't one of them.

Not necessarily a mechanic, but he could be more up the court to help out. But this really is the C's call most of the time.

Peace

And the C had a whistle and close down. The L sells it hard, so the C just held up on his signal, which is being a great partner.

Incidentally I have a PC.

I knew why that was the actions of the C, but that should have been his call to see. He can see between the bodies. The L is kind of looking behind. And in that case, the defender would get every benefit of the doubt from me if I was the L. I think the L forgot he has a partner looking dead across before coming hard with a call.

It would have been mildly entertaining to watch the C come out with a late PC to force a double foul. Wrong on many accounts but at least amusing.

Perhaps it would be better than sticking the wrong player with the foul.
