Mich Mich St block/charge call, then makeup call (Video)
 

14:18 in the second half.....officials call block on obvious charge, Mich coach loses it, Mich St gets called for a ticky tack hold, Izzo's reaction is honestly funny.

You're joking, right? "make up call"?

No joke, you have to see the clip Adam. Izzo had a $&!@ eating grin on his face after the hold or illegal screen, whatever they called.

I was in attendance at that game and that seemed to be the consensus of the folks where I was sitting. For the record I've never believed in the notion of "make up calls".

Was the second one a foul right after a media timeout threshold?

After having season tickets for a major D1 school for a few years, I'm never surprised when there's (in the words of Bill Raftery) a nickel-dimer a few seconds after the threshold is passed. Happens ALL THE TIME.

No Rich, was on the next possession. We need the powers at be to clip it, I can tape with my phone, but that's as useless as a team pressing down 40

Block
 

The first call was the block - awful call!

No idea how to make this work, but I tried :)

Charge. Official probably got surprised and didn't see the defender just standing there the entire time and defaulted to a block.

eek I don't know what that call after the charge is for honestly.

Two errors are worse than one error. If you kick a call, referee excellently thereafter.

You'll be remembered as a guy that made 1 iffy call all night. If you put makeup on a call, you'll be known as the guy who tries to even things out. (Or the guy with piss-poor judgement.)

Which do you think garnishes more respect?

Is that the same official making both calls? The official who made the first call should have been opposite the table for the 2nd play.

I think it may have been.

Is that true in NCAAM? I thought on a foul in the BC, that it was just a "bump and run", so he would have been L table side. But, sometimes, the other officials just move down and the official who is tableside inbounds (not correct, but "easier")

On all foul calls, the calling officials is supposed to go opposite table, regardless of type of foul or where it occurred. We have an exception to stay (or go) tableside if we want to address the coach.

Both the T and the C whistled and signaled on the first one...and they both had the wrong call. The C yielded it to the T who was opposite and stayed opposite. So, one of the same officials who called the first one (but didn't report it) called the 2nd one.

First one is a charge but I don't think the second call is completely made up. Screener is moving into the defender at the time of contact.

Replay isn't good enough to definitively show block or charge anyway, imo. It almost looks like the offensive players head and shoulders were beyond the torso of the defender, which results in a Fed block.

Ready for the backlash, I am....

FIFY. It can still be a charge. (I did not re-watch the video to see either way.

That has no bearing on the call if the defender is stationary....and I'm pretty sure he was.

Looks as though the greater responsbility for contact was on the defender, then. But, again, the replay isn't definitive.

And that doesn't mean that it can't still be a PC foul.

The only thing that really means is that the defender's right to be moving laterally, as is permitted by having LGP, ceases since any new movement would be towards the opponent.
