One Last Thought Before Hitting the Hay

[Purdue0034]

Watched the replay of the Johnny Hill drive from the overhead camera and he was absolutely without a doubt fouled by Hagins. No maybe about it. The reach in hooked his arm and was severe enough to send him flying. From the ground level camera it was hard to see and it just appeared Johnny slipped and lost his balance. Not that it makes it much easier to take, but we should have been on the line shooting free throws with a chance to win the game. We got hosed. It wasn't just like a little reach in either. He completely hooked his arm, it should not have been one of those times where the ref should have swallowed the whistle.

I rewatched it, and yeah it was pretty bad, but you can avoid that by not blowing the 14 point lead in the first place.

I re-watched it over and over and have no clue what you are talking about, he was losing his balance before-hand. it's water under the bridge at this point. we can't have 5.1 seconds remaining and stand there with the ball with two time-outs like a deer in the headlights. Coaches CANNOT call time-outs this year and that didn't help. It has cost numerous teams games this year including Syracuse and many, many other teams. It's a stupid rule.
