March 26, 201511 yr (NIT Quarterfinal) Buzzer Beater Final from Norfolk. Tough loss for Murray ODU shot the ball great. What a shot to end the game! Plus the player walked!
March 26, 201511 yr Final ODU's Freeman banks in a 3 from the NIT diamond at the buzzer to win the game.
March 26, 201511 yr What a heart breaker after digging down deep to come back late to tie it with 3 seconds remaining. Oh Man.
March 26, 201511 yr 3 times if you count the bank 3 in the final minute against Bel,out prior to their buzzer beater. I feel terrible for those kids.
March 26, 201511 yr Lose the OVC tourney on a 3 with 3 seconds to go and now this. Bad luck and the announcer said the shooter walked prior to the shot. Edited March 26, 201511 yr by Colonels_Wear_Blue Rule #13
March 26, 201511 yr Lose the OVC tourney on a 3 with 3 seconds to go and now this. Bad luck and the announcer said the shooter walked prior to the shot. Big time walk. I get swallowing your whistle, but come on. It would have been one thing had Ellis noticed the walk with the replay, he called it out as the play unfolded.
March 26, 201511 yr That sucked on so many levels. Great effort by both squads. ODU captured their largest lead of 10 points with 3:30 left but Murray State ramped up the pressure to tie the game. MSU was uncharacteristically poor from beyond the arc (5-21), but managed to grab points at the FT line. Cameron Payne was Cameron Payne scoring 23 points and dishing out 6 assists. A lot of question marks this offseason for the Racers. - MSU loses their starting front line. I am sure they are looking to go the JUCO route to fill that void. Langford returns up front and is solid but didn't see many minutes until the end of the season. - What will Cameron Payne do? Dude was a Wooden Award semi-finalist. If he returns he has a good shot of being pre-season first team All-American in what seems to be a weaker PG year. However, I checked a couple nights ago and he has sneaked his way in to the back of the first round on Draft Express. I am not sure he is ready to step in right away and compete physically at the next level. If he returns he will be alongside DeMarcus Coaker. Coaker was a former top 100 commit that decommited and went to Texas. He then transferred to Murray State mid-season. The Racers also seem to be in the running for Memphis transfer Nick King. - What will Steve Prohm do? I could see this hinging on Payne's decision. Prohm has a great situation in Murray but he can get paid A LOT more elsewhere. Knowing the powers at Murray, I doubt they ever pony up the money to retain a coach that can build Murray State in to what I would love to see it be.

I didnt see the walk from tbe angle I saw plus it is impossible to walk while dribbling.
March 26, 201511 yr Anyone have video? I didnt see the walk from tbe angle I saw plus it is impossible to walk while dribbling. :38 second mark...not a walk.
March 26, 201511 yr Anyone have video? I didnt see the walk from tbe angle I saw plus it is impossible to walk while dribbling. I think Ellis said "he got away with a travel" right before he shot. Maybe Ellis thought he carried the ball around the defender and called that the travel, I didn't think that was a violation. It happened at the initial onset of catching the ball and him turning, you can see Prohm giving the travel signal right away when it (supposedly) happened. Granted it was right in front of him, so maybe he was reaching. Ref had a good angle on it - this angle I can't tell anything - so maybe it didn't occur. Not fair for me to say it was obvious or he was swallowing his whistle. Not the reason MSU lost. That will be my last post talking about the call. I hate trying to dissect plays frame by frame from awkward angles and defending one way or the other.

Hard to tell but it is possible he stopped the dribble against his hip and then dribbled again. Again, hard to see. That would be a double dribble. If the ball "hit" his hip but never came to a rest then it's still allowed to be dribbled.
