Jay Bilas taught me

Duke/Wisc. game..Jay Bilas just taught me something..75% of block charge bang bang calls are BLOCKS! who knew

[zm1283]

I was going to post the same thing. He is just a complete buffoon with an agenda.

[just another ref]

With Mr. Bilas, his answers often provoke more questions. Is his assessment based on anything other than his personal observations? And is he saying this is what is being called or how these plays should be called?


Does anyone have any actual numbers on this? And whether the numbers are staying the same or trending in either direction?

Jay Bilas has taught me not to listen to Jay Bilas.

He has also said before that officiating is easy and he thinks anyone that has played, coached, and/or read the rules is automatically qualified.

I'd say he might learn different if he officiates, but I doubt it. I've got a hunch he'd probably just call all of them blocks and be happy getting it 75% right.

He wants to remove player control fouls from the game.

I'm guessing the one against Gasser? Or the one on Nigel Hayes? Both of them looked like clear charges from the upper deck.

What does that even mean?

Perhaps it should be written very slowly, with block letters and with no words longer than 2 syllables. More easily understandable for the likes of him.
