Barstool thinks the Knell T was “the softest technical in the history of the

NCAA tournament.” And an “embarrassment for the sport.”

This Is The Softest Technical In The History Of The NCAA Tournament, Embarrassing For The Sport

This is infuriating. This is embarrassing. Tony Padilla should be fired on the spot, publicly humiliated and banned from college basketball forever for this. You can’t call this technical ever, let al...

*As I mentioned in a post last night, the fact that Sears was talking trash after all his threes the entire first half, makes it all that much more stupid and suspect.

we were coming back and it killed the momentum & the run. Our defense was

Then they called Knell for being on the receiving end of a charge right after

Prompted a text from non-LDS buddy (played at Harvard, not the average fan)

I got a similar text from a friend that went to ASU

Knell is known for being an instigator. Padilla knows this and makes garbage

Mar 28, 6:15am

To the extent that this is true, it is zero basis for making that call. And the

Is there an element of higher standards bc we’re BYU? Is his rep bc he doesn’t back down?

I get what you are asking - often wonder the same

Mar 28, 7:19am

Probably barely beat the 'Mag pointing at the screen' tech from the

Mar 28, 6:34am

The Mag "t" for pointing at the monitor has a strong case for being a worse call

We saw Padilla warn Sears for talking trash after a 3 and didn’t seem like Knell got a warning

I saw the same thing. Warning to Sears but not Knell.

Any documented accounts on what Knell said?

Didn’t even get a reaction from the Bama defender so no way it was anything.

Mar 28, 6:51am

its not even clear it was intended as trash talk for the Bama player. It was

Mar 28, 7:05am

Wasn't the radio crew (who are well known to the players) sitting right there as well?

The TV crew mentioned that the Bama player didn't even react like they

Knell said: "I wasn't excited to be part of this game, but now I am"

Talking on the floor vs talking to the bench? is there a difference?

Knells reaction said “I’m too old for this”

Mar 28, 7:07am

The best part was Padilla then calling a questionable blocking foul on Knell 8 seconds later just to ensue we knew who

Spiff

Mar 28, 9:04am

Just stop. Nothing about that game was about the refs. Bama played lights out.

Mar 28, 9:15am

That sequence (T & blocking) was most certainly about the refs. Alabama most certainly played lights out.

Spiff

Mar 28, 9:18am

It wouldn’t at all changed the outcome. So no need complaining about it.

Mar 28, 9:32am

Cool.

Mar 28, 9:58am

So expect ing the refs to not make phantom calls is only valid when...

Mar 28, 10:38am

What’s pathetic is the board constantly whining about the refs. We are so

Mar 28, 10:46am

It’s okay to whine and hate this sequence of calls AND recognize Bama smacked us

Another day, another condescending take on what's okay to say on CB.

Also if it wasn't Tony Padilla who has a history of trash calls vs. us, maybe it

Cosmos-beard-card

Mar 28, 5:45pm

So you don't believe Bama played lights out and Padilla screwed those calls up can both be true?

slatecoug

Mar 28, 2:30pm

Sure. But it’s also more true that CBers feel persecuted by a ref’s bad call

Mar 28, 3:39pm

Can you only complain about refs if it affected the game?

ochobeeguy

Mar 28, 3:57pm

You do you.

Mar 28, 4:19pm

This kind of logic always breaks apart on the reality that if it had been a

Mar 28, 7:36pm

Well, it was.

seacougar

Mar 28, 9:18am

Our school security guard also didn't like the call

bythenumbers

Mar 28, 9:38am

It was dumb, but not the softest in history.

Mar 28, 9:44am

Ok, 2nd softest.

Mar 28, 9:58am

Wow, that was bad.

Oof. That was bad! Poor guy.

Joking that as a missionary, people don't come to the door when knocking

Parker Schnabel

Mar 28, 12:04pm

Padilla always makes the game about him. Nothing new here.

Les IsMore

Mar 28, 10:30am

They aren't alone in that line of thinking, and many who are in agreement aren't BYU fans, which says a lot.

It probably was soft but...

All the Techs called on BYU were ridiculous, let’s be honest.
