| The late goal-tending call... | |

It wasn't why Purdue lost, but I keep hearing a strange justification for it...and am wondering what others here think about it. The justification I've heard on TV, several times, was that Hammons got the ball as it was going up...BUT the call was right because his hand hit the rim before he touched the ball. Is that really the rule? I would think it doesn't matter who touches the rim while the ball is going up. But am too lazy to find the official ruling on such a play. Can anybody...perhaps with officiating experience, shine some light on that? |

Couple things -- you can't touch the rim to gain an advantage (doesn't matter whether it is in intentional or unintentional). Seems pretty clear that timing wise he couldn't block the ball before it hit the backboard without going through the rim. Rule in NCAA is that once the ball hits the backboard above the rim, the ball is considered to be on it's downward flight regardless of whether or not it is in fact it is. The camera view behind the basket clearly shows that the backboard was shook by the contact with the rim and it certainly looks like the ball would have hit the backboard before Hammons got to it. So, in that case, it would seem like Hammons clearly gained an advantage by touching the rim. So, if we want to get technical with it, they could have made the call in which a player touches the rim to gain an advantage....which is a technical foul. People can site that 'hey, by rules it's not a goaltend' but there is clearly a rule that can result in a technical foul. The call that makes sense is a goal tend. |

Honestly, in the end I think the goaltend mattered. Seems pretty clear on the replay Hartman is going to get the rebound. |

Would have only been about 1 second for Hartman to get the rebound and shoot to beat the shot clock, though. Think, though, it's pretty telling that not a single Purdue player nor CMP were complaining about the goal tend when it was called. |

Okay, the technical foul would have been the call I would agree with. I actually hadn't thought of that. One free throw for IU and they get the ball out-of-bounds with 7 seconds left. Probably a worse scenario for Purdue, but that's the call I think would've been correct. Though I can see how calling that would have stirred a ton of controversy. The goal-tending just doesn't make sense IMO because the ball didn't touch the backboard and the shot (many believe) never reached its apex. |

Painter said in the press conference that Hammons made a good play. |

He didn't argue a bit about it when it occurred, which is what I stated. I'm also sure Painter hadn't seen a replay of it at that point with Hammons hitting the rim. |

From the Indy Star: "We watched it on film and it looked like a clean block," Painter said. "Obviously I'm going to say that, but I'm pretty objective as a coach after I watch things. The thing I like a lot about the play was, he made a good play." He didn't comment on the rim contact, but did say Hammons made a good play. Painter rarely protests a call on the scene...which is disturbing to some of us. FWIW, I think the call was made because it was believed that Ferrell's shot had reached its apex....and it was close. I really don't think the official...or anyone other than Hammons himself, was aware of the rim contact at the moment it happened. (Just my opinion from watching the play in my living room of course) Edited by BoilerVision, Feb 21 2016, 12:29 PM.

Nonetheless, it was just a judgement call that happens all the time in those situations. I personally don't think the refs could even see Hammons make contact with the rim in realtime. I think the plays the could have possibly changed the game, IMO was Hammons 2nd and fourth foul calls. The second was a phantom call and the 4th was a judgement call, which should have been a play on. Plus, Painter should have played Mathias more too. You guys need shooters on the floor to open up the inside and you didn't get shit from Davis. |

The third foul on Hammons was a joke. Complete flop by Biefeldt and contact that happens 100s a times a game. |

“He’s always been a guy — maybe to a fault — he would always try to do what I said. That seems like something simple in coaching, but those are the guys I hang my hat on. We’ve had some guys in our program, we had a couple guys that felt I had a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. And they were right — I do have a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. I like guys that go to class, that are academic All-Americans, that come early, that stay late, that love the game of basketball. I am biased towards those guys. And I’m biased towards Rob Hummel. But I’m also biased towards their habits, their work ethic, and how they carry themselves." "I’d take him to the ends of the earth — I’d want him playing for me.” - Bo Ryan on Robbie Hummel

He didn't flop any more than any other player trying to draw a charge call. This contact didn't happen int he lane where centers usually collide while trying to establish position. Biefeldt set up to take a charge and Hammons ran right into him. Fact is, Hammons had just gotten scored on. Looked like he wanted to give Biefeldt a little shove. It was an incredibly stupid play by Hammons. |

Just because they didn't get anything from Davis doesn't mean that you would normally expect more from Mathias. Even after yesterday, Davis is hitting a higher percentage of his threes than Mathias. Dakota's also reached double figures in exactly two times this year. |

Totally agree. I just wanted to discuss what the proper call should have been, based on the justifications that BTN and ESPN have claimed (that the ball was going up, but touching the rim is "automatically" goaltending) |

IU fans haven't cared about anythnig Dakich has said for years. I would think Purdue fans wouldn't as well. |

It wasn't just him. Dave Revsine said the same thing on The Finale, and I also heard it on ESPNews...but wasn't paying enough attention to notice who it was. But, on that note, I don't know why they keep putting him on the IU-Purdue games. I'm pretty sure both fanbases would vote strongly against it. |
