March 17, 201214 yr Final. GREAT win for the boys considering how they started the 2nd half which resulted in a 10-point deficit. Tu showed up big.
March 17, 201214 yr Unbelievable. I want them to start calling lane violation during the earlier parts of the game because it happens about 20 times a game. Intentional foul call was garbage.
March 17, 201214 yr Author Unbelievable. I want them to start calling lane violation during the earlier parts of the game because it happens about 20 times a game. Intentional foul call was garbage. 100% correct. You can't reach out and yank a jersey when a player is running away. Easy call.
March 17, 201214 yr 100% correct. You can't reach out and yank a jersey when a player is running away. Easy call. Yeah that never happens during a game when guys are running around screens and on rebounds battling for post position.
March 17, 201214 yr Author Sir Charles' words tonight are exactly why refs can't win. When they blow calls (ie Syracuse) they get hammered. When they make the right call "let the players decide the game" comes out.
March 17, 201214 yr Author Yeah that never happens during a game when guys are running around screens and on rebounds battling for post position. Never blatant like that one.
March 17, 201214 yr Both calls were correct, but I see both scenarios happen throughout the duration of a game all the time. Just call them all the time & I'm fine with it. Congrats to XU. Tu was huge.
March 17, 201214 yr Never blatant like that one. Every foul down the stretch is blatant. Why aren't they intentional? They inbound the ball and the guy gets bear hugged and that's not intentional? I'd love to see replay of all the foul shots in that game. I bet you can could at least 5-10 lane violations that were not called. I'm not saying it shouldn't have been called because it was obviously early but you can't pick and choose when you want to call that.
March 17, 201214 yr Unbelievable. I want them to start calling lane violation during the earlier parts of the game because it happens about 20 times a game. Intentional foul call was garbage. The intentional foul was 100% legitimate. You can't grab somebody's jersey like that & just hang on. It was a disappointing end to the game because it was dominated by the officials, but I think the officials made the right calls.

I agree that it is suspect that you don't see the lane violations called earlier in the game, but it is rare for the player at the 3 point line to crash the boards in the 1st half. Regarding the intentional foul: it was intentional, no doubt about it. Any time you grab and hold a jersey like that, it's going to be intentional. That was blatant.

I agree but the guys on the inside go in early all the time. You think that gets called an intentional foul 5 minutes into the game? Only chance would be if it was on a breakaway layup.

I agree with that. Most of the lane violations I see are from the six guys in the lane. Tonight, though, I saw two or three shooters crossing the line too early. One of them was in the Duke/Lehigh game.
