Message: [QUOTE="zepfan, post: 3117622, member: 8094"] Agree refs should have made the double dribble call. I didn't catch it at the time, I think because it is an unusual occurrence and the kid did it so quickly and without hesitation. No excuse for the refs, their paid to know the rules even in odd situations. Human error, it happens and it was unfortunate. The foul was a foul, especially because it happened before the release. If it was on the way down, still a foul but one that could be over-looked. The closeout by the defender wasn't overly hard, he actually came to a jump stop but then started to go up for the block but changed his mind and his momentum took him into the shooter knocking him off vertical. Kid is a boss hitting all three foul shots. Tough way to lose for Auburn but no conspiracies just one blown call... it happens all the time. I'm sure they'll be training on the ball off the foot and double dribble call for refs in the future. [/QUOTE]
