Vanderbilt vs Tennessee - PC/RA call (Video)

I was going to post a request for this same play.
It will make a nice instructional video.
I believe that the charging call was correct.

It was either a PC or a no-call.

I can make a case for either, though live I thought there was enough contact for the PC

...assuming he was outside the RA.

Very close.
The defender does reach his spot in time, but his left heel seems to be barely touching the RA. To determine this, I paused the video and took a still pic, then enlarged it. That's how close this was.

I *think* the rule-of-thumb is "when in doubt, he's out."

So, charge is the right call.

I actively talk to myself to get the secondary defender's feet on these plays. Left heel was on the arc, so it should have been a block.

Above=On/In the RA. His heel certainly looks to be elevated above the RA. That said, it's a real tough call and a tough one for the C to get as he has players cutting past him as the contact happens.

With halftime scores in the teens/20's of D1 games, college basketball could use some more NBA rules in the book.
