Much needed win for IU.

Yep... think Indiana matches up pretty well with Iowa. They can sweep Iowa if they play smarter.

 

[NaturalHigh]

Wth just happened with coach cal? I need answers!

 

[RoKKeR]

Haha, yeah what was that? The call went against Scar but he still lost it? Pretty hilarious.

 

[Proelite]

Quickest ejection of a coach from a game ever?

 

[Fjordson]

What a weird game. Cal lost his mind there, never seen him that pissed.

Ulis and Murray continue to be amazing. We're a good team when they get just a little help from the rest of the roster.

 

[DominoKid]

i pray we dont cross paths with Oklahoma. they'd wash us. Kansas either just cause Roy is afraid to play them.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Duke is playing terribly.

Okafor and Stones are in the crowd. Suit them up.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Brandon Ingram is good at basketball.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

So...Brandon Ingram yall

 

[DominoKid]

future Lakers legend Brandon Ingram

say his whole name.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

This Duke team is unbelievably bad at inbounding the ball.

ACC Refs ACC Reffing up and down the court in this game

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Duke has been throwing this game for about 10 minutes.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

I guess it was worth it for that.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Wow

This team is starting to look like it can go far in march with just a little luck with matchups.

Guard play is just great now that they've figured out how they need to play.

It's pretty clearly just 2 steps after he gathers the ball (Grayson has long strides), but it does look like his foot was on the ground before release. Hard to call that in real time and it's not reviewable. Also keep in mind there could arguably have been a foul called.

Dude took 3-4 steps easily, and if anything Grayson initiated contact, defender went straight up

 

[Fjordson]

Definitely looked like a walk, but hard to expect that call in that situation tbh. a) Travels are always inconsistent as a rule b) college refs lol and c) a home team shooting for the game. They don't want to end the game on a violation.

Just going by this video, at 2.0 left on the clock he gathers the ball during/after a really long step which ends with him planted on his right foot (which doesn't count, because it's still part of the dribble). Now that the ball is gathered (he's picked up his dribble) he takes a really quick step with his left and another looong one with his right (so that's 2 steps) and then releases his shot. It's that first long step as he's gathering the ball that makes it look to a lot of people like an extra step.

His defender's arm is definitely not straight up. It's leaning forward, which is why Grayson has to fade back a bit to get some room to get the shot off. It's not a foul that should be called in that situation IMO, but it's worth bringing up when people start nitpicking about other things that were "missed" (like his foot hitting the ground before the release).

 

[DominoKid]

refs coulda called a bunch of shit on that play but they not gonna call anything in that scenario so i'm not mad at it.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

I'm not gonna roll back all that shit I said about this not being that great a Duke team but at least I can say definitively that they're better than 2007.

 

[truly101]

Allen's foot is down before the shot is off. He is also getting hammered and no call. Refs are going to stay out of a situation like this if they can, even if the shot had missed.

 

[Fjordson]

Refs are going to stay out of a situation like this.

Basically this.

Crean with the shit coaching move of having both Bryant & Yogi out of the game out at the same time.

Sorry Tom. Your boy got caught reaching hard.

 

[thefro]

That's the 2nd foul on the floor they've called a shooting foul (Valentine had one in the 1st half after the last media TO).

 

[DominoKid]

life in the ACC has not been kind to Jamie Dixon

 

[thefro]

If I was in charge of the NCAA, it'd be a technical foul if a guy is shooting the 3, gets barely hit after shooting and then flops to the ground.

 

[Mac the KNife]

That was fun.

The long national nightmare is over. Duke is back in the polls (20 AP, 19 SID) for the first time since three weeks ago.

Our good friends at the Worldwide Leader can breathe a sigh of relief.

The sanctity of the Duke-Carolina matchup is saved.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Speaking of the worldwide leader, why is the Duke @ Louisville game a noon tip-off (Saturday) for the second year in a row.

They really need to start scheduling around my availability.
