GAME THREAD West Virginia basketball at UCF

[jlaudiomaster]

how is that block not a foul

Totally legal to land on the shooter, especially if you outweigh them by over 100 pounds

 

[jlaudiomaster]

Johnson fouling Quinn that entire possession

 

[WVUALLEN]

If the defender is going to be allowed to chest bump the ball handler and get no call then it's going to be a long night.

It’s been a long night. We have had a player on the floor probably once every 3 possessions, and we have not been a flopping team all year.

I fully expect 2nd half to be called TIGHT. Would that surprise you?

Eilert needs to learn to be a physical coach as much as his players need to learn to play physical. He needs to get up in the Refs face and get a T call.

 

[WVUALLEN]

I fully expect 2nd half to be called TIGHT. Would that surprise you?

Both sides or just one sided?

 

[MountaineerWV]

Both sides.

 

[jlaudiomaster]

No, it would be par for the inconsistent course. However, if its call tight on both sides, that can only help us at this point.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Eilert needs to learn to be a physical coach as much as his players need to learn to play physical. He needs to get up in the Refs face and get a T call.

This is the type of game where having Huggins would pay off. He would have called a timeout early, spend the entire time chewing on the refs, and then the calls would have changed. Eilert doesn't have the clout to do that.

I agree. I guess need to wait and see how this half is officiated but he should be thinking about getting a T early to hopefully buy us some calls later in the game. Especially on the physical crap.

 

[wvpaper]

need to come out and hammer someone. flagrant 2. use the last player on the bench

 

[WVUALLEN]

He needs to learn how to get that clout if he wants to coach.

 

[wvpaper]

i reiterate, hammer one of them. only way to get the officials to tighten up

 

[WVUALLEN]

Both sides.

Still waiting for that tight whistle?

 

[jlaudiomaster]

Guess no sense in playing Edwards as well. Don’t suppose we need a big body underneath in this game.

Putting in Edwards would change nothing as far as being more physical.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Shocked Noah is going to foul line.

 

[wvpaper]

i couldn’t let them punk me like this. gotta sweep the legs, or better yet run through them at full speed - same foot and shoulder on contact

 

[wvpaper]

Putting in Edwards would change nothing as far as being more physical.

be a waste in this game

 

[wvpaper]

zone is terrible idea. they can throw it to disblo anytime they want

 

[MountaineerWV]

Someone explain how #3 didn't get a technical foul, or why the refs didn't at least go to the monitor to look at it?

 

[wvpaper]

f this. leave this court wo retaliation after taking all these uncalled fouls and they won’t recover ptsd

 

[WVUALLEN]

Dawkins obviously gets the Duke officiating game plan.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Transition turnovers killing us

 

[MountaineerWV]

....and Battle should know better. Ref pointed at him, clearly targeting him and baited him. Big 12 should be ashamed.

 

[jlaudiomaster]

That T should be Eilert. Shame on him for Battle having to be the one stepping up and being vocal

 

[WVUALLEN]

Battle had to play coach and cuss out the officials.

 

[MountaineerWV]

#1 grabs Kerr while dribbling.....NO CALL

 

[WVUALLEN]

Battle most likely still pissed because of being knocked down after a dunk.

 

[WVUALLEN]

#1 grabs Kerr while dribbling.....NO CALL

Well Kerr would have given it to him if he was patient.

 

[jlaudiomaster]

Shame to see one of their players down…

 

[MountaineerWV]

Harris mixing it up on defensive boards....and knocking some shots down tonight.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Harris on fire

 

[WVUALLEN]

Battle's T happened a little too late.

The tight whistle will probably come now.

 

[jlaudiomaster]

Team won’t go without a fight, but…. Too little to late I’m afraid

 

[MountaineerWV]

This game shows what a rim protector means for a defense.

 

[jlaudiomaster]

This game shows what a rim protector means for a defense.

And also what fouling without any consequences can do for a team

 

[wvpaper]

lol. ucf actually needed all the ref help they got. they are a bad team

these officials need to be doing city league games in a small city

 

[MountaineerWV]

And also what fouling without any consequences can do for a team

True. But we've lost about 20 points around the rim from either blocked or altered shots.
