Officiating NCarolina/Illinois

[DIRTY Diapers]

OFFICIATING :mj07:

I had UNC and the Under last night... But the officiating was a joke. There were two touch fouls on Augustine that shouldnt of been called - let them play refs.

Also, how many illegal screens were set in this game by the Illini. There was one time when Augustine took out two players with a screen. It was a joke.

The NCAA needs to address more consistency with refs concerning touch fouls. PLus, something needs to be done about illegal screening. It is a joke what players get away with today.

I agree, to an extent. Refs have been horrible all year. The UNC/Villanova game was downright laughable.
I agree with the touch fouls, but at the same time, too many players just want to get away with stuff. Hand-checking, grabbing, holding, instead of moving their feet and playing good defense.
I'm also sick of players trying to run other guys just to get a cheap charge. Not to mention flopping.
The game is supposed to be played a certain way and fouls are accidents.
Too many players/teams relying on calls and no-calls rather than playing basketball.
Tired of seeing a guy drive to the basket with nothing on his mind other than drawing contact and going to the line.
The refs are a huge problem, but the players force some of the stuff too.
Needs to be a lot more consistency.

One last thing. Here is my "solution" to flops. First, there needs to be a "no-charge" zone under the basket like in the NBA. But this means that its either a block or no-call, not an automatic block.
If a guy flops and theres no call....run over him. Then its a block.
I've seen players who flop get too much of an advantage. They either get the call. Or they end up on the floor where they occupy so much space and the offensive guy doesn't want to step on him. I say step on him and let the ref make the correct calll, which is a block.

Officiating was a tale of 2 halves. I remember one time where Powell probably got fouled about 4 times underneath the basket and nothing was ever called or even Augustine with his touch fouls. 2nd half, not much was really called. bad officiating

I thought I heard once that if you flop it should be called a technical foul.

in high school a flop can be called a T.
all i have to say is to all those that complain about officials should go out and get a whistle, get to the class and go ref some games and than tell me how a game should be called or not called.
Everybody thinks it is so easy to ref but 99% of the people would never have the courage to go out and try it theirself.
Are some calls the wrong call? yes
Are 90-95% of the calls the right call? Yes

As stated earlier if more people worried about playing and coaching instead of what call was made and what call wasn't the game would be better off.

Shark,

I agree officiating is very tough. But these guys are paid professionals - I think everyone here would agree the best referee is the one who is not remembered. The NCAA needs to address flopping, touch fouls, and illegal screens.

 

[Kdogg21]

i would say they missed about 50% of the calls. illegal screens, traveling, getting hammered in the paint. Granted of your illinois if you gonna foul, foul him hard, not tapping on his shoulder and saying your right there. Than again, how can you call Augstine on those fouls and May is doing the same thing on the other end.

 

[Pujo21]

yeah that ILLINI guy got machetted under the basket.... they were chopping ILLINOIS players all night... it was like watching fvcking faggot face phoney Michael Jordan ( who hid out a year 'cause he was dirty ) get ushered in to the trophies by that scumbag Mogen David Stern's henchmen referees.

North Carolina --The Champs :mj07:

you mean to tell me in 40 minutes of play..ILLINOIS gets 6 free throws ??????????????????????????????????????????? :142lmao:

:em38: moon1

whatever, regardless of the ft discrepancy - stop shooting 60+ 20 footers a game. it is either in or out. you do not get ft's for that, often. also, how about a moving screen being called? that happened all night - much like it did against louisville. unc is the most talented team in the country and they won. the wad williams to's kept illini in the game. no disrespect towards illinois, but they have no true post player. they should have lost to arizona, but instead it was north carolina.
