Michigan at MSU (Video)

All 3 look good to me. Good job.

#1 could have been a travel or a charge. Both happened pretty much at the same time.

#2 was backwards. The white player was holding onto the blue player's arm and then put on a show to sucker the official into calling the foul. He definitely didn't get pushed anything like he made it look.

#3. Looks good. He flung his arm back and smacked the defender on the head with the backside of his arm.

Camron ~ On #2, I have the defensive player dislodging throughout the block-out and a final shove to solidify the foul call. Do you not feel the dislodging during the block-out is not enough displacement for a foul? Honest question.

#1 not a travel. C was straight-lined throughout the play, and the ball-handler got the ball out to start his dribble as his left foot came down.

That is fine, but his right foot was the pivot foot (established when he picked up the ball after the single dribble) and it was lifted and replanted right at the same time as the contact.

The cadence of his whistle seemed to corelate with the landing and start of the dribble. When I slowed it down, and looked for foot movement at the time of the contact, I saw what you stated. Thanks.

1) If not a travel, it would have been a PC foul, so MSU comes out ahead on that call.

2) At first it was a stand-off, but the very last frame of the play shows the Michigan player grab the MSU player to prevent him from jumping.

3) Good review, and I'm assuming it remained as a regular ole TC foul.

I don't. The offensive player (in white) was giving up that space. He got caught in a poor position and knew it. I think he was playing for the foul and there was no final shove. The player faked it to get the foul call.The fact that he was holding the defender's arm against him was, in my opinion, on purpose so he could fake the shove.
