St. Joe's vs Oregon Team Control (Video Request)

The play in question is at 9.8 in the second half. SJ fumbled the ball. After several players fighting for control we have a foul on SJ. Oregon shot free throws. I'm wondering if Oregon ever had team...

I've heard several college officials talk about the hook play here needing to be called by C. This is slightly odd because he hooks him on the entry pass rather than a spin to the bucket, but C still...

The only time I have ever used a fist was when I had to look to make sure the ball was not yet at the disposal after a made bucket before signaling T. I suppose I go straight to the T during dead...

You can tell the intent of the offensive player was to screen here. He's focused in on that player and in someone of a screening position. When two guys just run into each other they are usually...

I would've whacked the assistant pretty much the second he started "pacing and complaining". That may have shut everyone up and let you guys get back to basketball, but it might not have. Nothing...

Maybe "go through" is not the right language. There still has to be enough contact to put the player at a disadvantage. I'm saying it is possible, given our bad angle, that the duke player fell on...

I agree pass and crash plays need to be called. Hard to tell from this angle whether there was much contact though. Looks like the MSU player was moving sideways as the Duke player was falling (did...

What did he correct? Just curious. Also anyone know if the correctable error time frame is the same in the NBA and NFHS?

Hold on. This was a lob pass, not a try. It doesn't matter where it came from. It should be 2 or 0 not 3 or 0.

Absolutely he should have been ejected. Unfortunately, it looked like the trail was the only one who saw the play, and he was more than 30 feet away. Thankfully the coach took him out.

Hmmm. Thanks for the ruling, but I still don't understand how it could be legal to sit-up but illegal to get to your knees. Does anyone see the logic behind this?

A1 is laying on his stomach, and he pushes himself to his knees. His knees were in contact with the floor the whole time.

What else are NBA announcers for???
They see a play, get confused, and try to explain (usually incorrectly) to the viewers.
