So his finger magically bent backwards? He must have different physiology than every other human being on earth so that he could do that on his own.

You must not have seen the definitive angle then. As he swipes for the ball, his fingers bend backwards as he makes contact

One of the biggest keys to success in any sport is the ability to make adjustments during the game. And yes, officiating is something one must sometimes adjust to.

This is what I don't like about this site....we are talking about a ball touching a freakin finger tip.....Can we discuss 10.1.4 or Begin,develop, finish.....how about consistency and crew dynamics.....
Guess I won't talk about the above til Mike Stephens camp this summer....Driscoll will be there as well.....

Begin, develop, and finish or consistency don't matter much if a person doesn't know the fundamentals of an infraction when it is right in front of them.

Back to the Dayton no call thread. I'm saying both calls were very similar as far as verticality goes, but for some reason Dayton didn't draw a foul and this did.

IIRC, the difference is in what the shooter did. One went out of his way to get to contact. The other took the ball up normally.

Three officiating decisions stood out to me. There were others which can be debated, but overall the crew did a good job.
The three plays to me which are difficult to comprehend that FF officials missed were the blocking foul called on Wisconsin by Derosa with about 9 minutes left. (Video of this has already been posted above in this thread.) I have a clear chargin foul on Duke's Winslow. The play with around 4:15 left in which the Duke player steps on the endline, then passes to Okafor who is fouled by Kaminsky and scores. The OOB call reviewed at 1:51. (Already discussed at length above.). Hard in real time or with an unclear video monitor, but if the NCAA is going to have video review for OOB calls under two minutes, then the system needs to be improved so that these calls are correct. Unfortunately, this one was not. |

It's simply unacceptable to go to review and get it wrong, but I don't know how they could have gotten it right with the monitor they had to use. |

And because the result went in his favor, Winslow figured he'd go a step further and literally run right through and over a legal defender (Dukan) in the second half ... and he got the call then, too! |
