The Holy Land of Hoops

If Nova ends up losing this that ref who called that charge should be fired. Wasn't set and feet in the restricted area. How bout we let the players decide a game? Ridiculous.

Seriously, regardless of the outcome...what a f*cking joke the refs are....they also missed the DeRosiers foul in the PC/Xavier game

I hope you're not suggesting that the no-call on Desrosiers affected the outcome of the game. There are missed calls in every game, but this wasn't a missed call. It was a made call that was wrong, it was blatant, and it denied one team an undisputed win. That's outrageous.

The video was pretty clear as to where the defender was...I guess that's not reviewable.

I think even Marquette fans would agree that was a poor call. For one, I am glad it did not ultimately impact the outcome.

Most calls are debatable. But when the guy is clearly standing in the restricted area, it's not remotely debatable.

What play was the no-call on Derosiers?

I was scratching my head wondering if Derosiers actually touched the ball on his "6th block" when Christon's lay up attempt rolled on top of the backboard. The replays I saw showed the ball going over Derosiers hand so I thought it should have been PC's ball. Maybe the refs had a different video but it looked clear to me.

A Nova fan complaining about refs? Give them a hug. You are 3-0 in OT games and get what seems like 30-40 FT's a game you can count on. Many teams drive and don't get anywhere near that many calls. Nova is very good by themselves obviously but the refs have been VERY VERY gracious towards you guys.

I sat in the end zone nosebleeds and haven't watched the replay yet, but didn't Christon's shot roll six feet along the top of the backboard...? I thought Harris got T'd up or something... did they say Desrosiers tipped it...? Did I miss something controversial in the XU-PC game...? Or are people just pointing at PC for no reason...?

Regarding Christon's shot, yes it rolled along the top of the backboard. It was initially called PC's ball. Then one ref said Derosiers tipped/blocked the shot before it rolled on the top of the backboard so it should be Xavier's ball. They went to the video review and called it Xavier ball. However, on the Fox Sports 1 replay both the announcers and me did not believe Derosiers made contact with the ball. I believe this was credited to Derosiers as a block, but from what I saw he did not tip the ball and they showed a very clear, slow replay.

There was no technical called.
