That charge call in the Syracuse/Duke game was bad

The new rule makes it so that any questionable charge/block should be a block. Even Jay Bilas said as much.

"If there is any question at all, then by rule, it can't be a charge." -Jay Bilas.

Also, the next time a 50/50 call goes against Duke will be the first time a 50/50 call goes against Duke.

lol, virtually the entire duke starting line up had 4 fouls or fouled out at Carolina last week. Parker fouled out at Syracuse on a ridiculous call, and their player got hammered going for a dunk that could have won the first Syracuse game this year.

But ok.

His rant was bigger than just one game. Do you think that the fact that the his first ejection of his career was at Duke in his 1st ACC trip there was purely coincidental? There is a bigger picture many of you are missing.

Yep..... "Welcome to the ACC Jim. Now remember, we run this Shit!"

Glad it landed on 6 though :)

If you can, feel free to point out where I said this.

What I said was it should've been a no call and the game should've been tied at 60 going into OT. I don't see the necessity to make the call there.

You are funny man. You said whether or not it was a charge, the game can't end like that. That is saying the rules should change depending on the timing of the play.

Did you hear that Brown's fans? Ernest Byner didn't really fumble :)

You can interpret what you want. I don't think it was a charge, don't think it was a block. I think you just swallow the whistle and give the ball to Duke with a tie game and 10.8 left in the game.

The game can't end like that meaning the ref involved himself in a play he didn't need to.

Yep, that's y Boeheim went nutz - he grinned and took it when Parker ran Benejay over - knowing there basically is no such thing as a charge unless u start swinging elbows - then Fair in total control is slightly undercut by Hood - if it's all close it is a block every time - that is the new rule - it is a point of emphasis like the hand checks to increase scoring - Duke's 31 home game streak could not be more meaningless

If you think the no call at Syracuse was ridiculous you either have no clue or are incredibly disingenuous. I stand by what I said. Duke gets the benefit of the doubt 90% of the time.

When they played at Syracuse their whole team just about fouled out. As far as I know Noonw was whining about that. Also the refs missed a last second obvious foul that was not called.

At Cuse, that last second call was neither obvious nor a foul.

You must be blind. Duke player got hammered attempting to dunk. Whatever, still most their team could fouled out no one cried about it.

Hammered? Christmas hit the ball FIRST and then Hood's body continued into Christmas who was retreating - could it have been called a foul? of course, but it was a bang bang play and the refs wanted the kids to decide the winner - in this game refs had the chance to let the kids decide - they chose to remove the basket that had gone in and make sure the players had no say in the last seconds - just let Fair get the hoop he earned - forget about the fact of the new rule and it's always a block

For those of you that think YOU could make that call in a split second---good luck.
No POSSIBLE way that is a no call. Boeheim ejection was a no brainer--one for leaving the coaches box and two for his unsporting behavior.
If you thought them game was poorly officiated-find a better crew than Greene/Luckie/Ayers

Just curious--what is the new rule??

In an attempt to increase scoring and reward the offensive player, for there to be a charge the defender has to be at his spot with both feet planted before the offensive player starts his motion of going up - this does not mean before he's in the air - it means before he takes his first step and then second step into the air - many teams abandoned attempting to draw charges this year - if its even close it's supposed to be a block - that's y Boeheim went nutz because its been rehashed 100x - another rule is that if the defender put his hand on the offensive player when he is driving it's a foul - the NCAA wanted to increase points this year
