Look at Mercer Basketball on Twitter you can see the dunk there. @MercerTitansBB

The player that turns it over is the one that takes the charge. You can see he is not set on the charge. Total bail out by the ref.

 

Thanks. I found it with your help.

Nasty and should have been a no call.

I don't think it was a charge at all. Potter was standing under the basket it appeared. But to your point I agree, especially the ones where the guy slides under a player already in the air. I'm sure numerous wrists have been broken or injured because of that play

 

I agree that it wasn't a charge, but not for the reason you note. I don't think it was a charge because I don't think he was there prior to him leaving his feet. Him standing under the basket is irrelevant. There is no circle in high school. You can be called for a charge literally anywhere on the floor, including if you knock over a guy under the basket.

 

I don't like that officials call that a charge any more than anyone on this thread does, but the reality is that if the player is there (unlike this play), the official absolutely can and does call a charge.
