C'mon now. The guys in studio were basically mocking the ESPN commentator for

talking like he was. Not to mention we have guys that actually played the game like Plaisted saying it was no big deal....

This commentator of the @BYUbasketball game is an idiot TJ hawed tagged a big guy rolling down the lane...that’s taught in every basketball practice at every program across the country and he’s acting like it’s abnormal...may have been a foul but for sure it’s a “basketball play”

We were fortunate it wasn't called. It was a foul, full stop.

No one is saying it wasn’t a foul

I don't know how any BYU fan can look at this play and not admit this

Even Plaistead admits it's a foul. It's clearly a foul, and could easily be

Plasited said it was basketball move and "may" be a foul. The ESPN guy was

I thought it was uncalled for too. I saw it live. I'm watching this replay.

Guess we'll just have to disagree. 🙂

2/23/20 1:45am

It’s a foul not a flagrant. Chucking cutters was a standard BB play 5 yrs ago

Lol. "Flagrant". Do you even basketball?

My only questions is if they could have called a common foul after the review. Clearly a common fould and possibly

That is exactly it. Cannot call a common foul on replay, so no call.

A foul, sure. But it is definitely a basketball play. Big guy in the paint in a

Correction: THEY were fortunate it wasn't called. Would have negated their 3

Haha nice. TJ listed at 6'4" 170.

If Haws is 6’4” then I’m Mark Eaton

Jaws has Mark Eaton’s wingspan, so there’s that

I've seen Haws in person a few times. He looks 6'4 to me, or very close to it.

Could have been called a common foul, but the ESPN guy acting like TJ just

And...if they do call the common foul, it wipes out the Zag 3.

Very good point

2/23/20 2:35am

Looked plenty dirty to me. Wish he hadn’t done it.

2/23/20 2:55am

I don't think so. Guys in the ESPN studio didn't think so and players like

it's one thing if a big guy is backing you down, another to run up from behind

"Forearm shiver." This has now passed the point of dumb.

It was a cheap shot. Should have been called. Nothing more to say.
