Wow, way to **** that one up Texas.

MetSox17 · 03-20-2011, 07:28 PM

Such ******* horseshit. You call 5 seconds on an inbound but you swallow your whistle when someone gets mugged. **** that ********.

jballa838 · 03-20-2011, 07:29 PM

bad clock management... they probably should start paying these kids.

I thought so too at first, but it looks like the clock expired just before the foul occurred. And Texas certainly didn't deserve to win anyway with the way they played the last 15 seconds.

you'd think i'd learn to stop taking my chances with teams like this. best start i've ever had, pissed away because texas can't inbound the ******* ball. awesome.

The 5 seconds call was a makeup for the no call on Williams right before.

Cory Joseph ******* called a timeout simultaneously as the ref was blowing his whistle. Jordan Hamilton was a mili-second late on the switch to Williams, how ******* unlucky can you be? They didn't necessarily play bad, that was just a horseshit call and ****** ******* luck. **** this tourney.

********, he was in the paint and all the defenders had their hands straight up, there is no foul when you hold your ground and you have position, wtf?

Wisconsin might send 2 teams to the sweet 16. Marquette is leading Syracuse right now and things look good. Cuse is getting tired and in foul trouble, lets see what half time adjustments do.

gpngc · 03-20-2011, 07:43 PM

You cannot call timeout when inbounding after 4 seconds.

Therefore, it was the correct call.

The referees in this tournament have been very, very, very good from what I've seen. They have a thankless job but I've seen very few mistakes and only a couple of truly questionable calls all tournament. And they've handled many of the pressure situations perfectly. Kudos to them.

If the refs were going to call a foul every single time Brown was near a defender...

diabsoule · 03-20-2011, 07:52 PM

Thanks for ******* that up, Texas. They should have won but made a few stupid ass mental errors towards the end and when the **** was the last 5 second violation called? 1984?

And my bracket is about to get busted. VCU is destroying Purdue and if Marquette beats Cuse then I'm gonna tear my bracket up into little pieces and wipe my ass with it.

MetSox17 · 03-20-2011, 08:01 PM

Tell me this isn't ********. He blows his whistle to call the timeout and instead calls five seconds. He clearly did not count five full seconds. That is ******* crap.

jballa838 · 03-20-2011, 08:02 PM

VCU is the epitome of a well-coached team. love watching them play.

gpngc · 03-20-2011, 08:03 PM

This kid Joey Rodriguez is so good.

Sooooo proud of my VCU Rams!! Gonna be one hell of a party tonight in Richmond!!

diabsoule · 03-20-2011, 08:13 PM

Richmond and VCU now both in the Sweet 16 and I'm somehow becoming a fan of Richmond, VA teams.

SeanTaylorRIP · 03-20-2011, 08:21 PM

VCU beats USC, blows out G'town and Purdue, damn it's not like they are lucking their way to favorable matchups like Richmond did with Morehead. Obviously every year is different but this VCU team has every component my Mason final 4 team had. Skeen is just as good as Jai Lewis. Reddic and Haley play that Will Thomas role. Brandenburg is like Butler, Rozell like Folarin, and Joey Rodriguez is even better than Tony Skinn. This VCU team also surprisingly has a ton of long and athletic bench bodies if guys get in foul trouble. Julian Vaughn and Liubick are two bull strong big east bigs and VCU pushed them around. When they are hitting like this on all levels they are tough. IMO they match up well with Notre Dame with how quickly they scramble and guard the periemter. If they play FSU everything is out the window and it's anyone's game. Jamie Skeen is really developing into a draftable prospect. Reminds me a ton of Udonis Haslem.
