And Jeff Van Gundy should not be doing college games. He clearly has no idea what he is talking about more in college games.

Peace

"If you want to say there was body contact..."
Bilas's commentary tonight is why I do not care for him. He's not as smart about rules as he makes himself out to be.

Well, he was right on that comment. The contact up top, which is what he was referring to, was completely clean. If there was a foul on that play, it could only have been with the body.

I didn't see the play, but if there was contact "with the body" (Camron Rust), then wouldn't that be "body contact" (Bilas)?

The seemingly sarcastic comment by Jay Bilas, when the camera angle was from a straight-lined position, looking through the shooter, continues his apparent attitude that officials are nowhere near as adept at calling a game as he is. The calling official had a good look from the side of the play, and was able to see that the defender came into the shooter with his body, before the "clean" block on top.
Mr. Bilas' all-knowing, all-seeing, attitude on so many plays often cuases me to turn down the sound when he is the commentator.
