Clemson vs Duke: Flagrant foul

[ruppcat]

there was something going on prior to the play to cause that.

For all that we hate the auburn player, 0, at least he resisted the urge to do this to the Arkansas guy on the last dunk the other night. You could tell he thought about it and wanted to but pulled back. This Clemson guy is a pos and should be done forever.

That dude should never play another game in CBB. If the NCAA would grow a pair and bring the hammer down on that kind of crap then it will stop. A play like that could easily end a players career.

That play could have ended a player's life if he flips and lands on his head.
One of the dirtiest takedowns I've seen in over 40 years of watching college bball. Usually it's a big arm swipe vs that BS shoulder block undercut.

Should’ve been ejected

Should be kicked off the team, that’s malicious intent. Duke got Grayson Allen’d and nobody deserves that.

 

[TheAnonymous13]

He should be done for the year.

Nothing wrong with making them earn it, just not allowing an easy dunk or layup.

Moore stripped the ball from him to start that breakaway

 

[Wildcats4ever2007]

I can't believe the Duke team didn't attack the kid after that.

Yea exactly so much for that “brotherhood”.. the team is soft.

If that would have happened to one of our guards, Oscar may have ripped that dude in half.

 

[kyjeff1]

Jeez. Brad Brownell needs to kick that kid off the team. That was bad.

 

[mrhotdice]

Looked clean to me

Your correct sir. In fact their could have been a charge on the play. Plus the Duke player tried to trip the defender.

 

[21Goose]

I'd give him the same punishment Grayson Allen got on his first trip.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Would he suspended if he was a Duke player? No?

Play on.

 

[Wildcats1st]

Reminds me of the fall Rex took where he broke his transverse process. It wasn’t a dirty play like that but it was a similar fall. I think it was against LSU but that was along time ago

 

[ManOfManyNames]

After K let Allen trip people for 3 years, allowed Banchero to play right after a DUI, and all his other BS the last 40+ yrs, I take no issues here with it being Duke on the receiving end. Karma can be a *****.

I prefer karma on K rather than a college kid....if ya gotta pick your karma.

Video?

Didn’t watch but wasn’t it a Dukie that busted the UNC’s guy’s face (name escapes me but their best player) Hansborough maybe.

 

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

That kid should be kicked off the team. He was trying to hurt that Duke player.

 

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

Yeah it was.

 

[docholiday51]

Even Grayson Allen thinks that’s dirty.

Probably not

Duke player lands on his head and he’d have more to worry about than his playing career.

 

[BBBLazing]

Thank Goodness he wasn't hurt. Definitely should be punished but saying he attempted to kill him a little extreme. Football way more collisions, body is just covered up. No blood, no broken bones, maybe a bruise. No way I condone this but...

Silly comparison. Rugby has harder hits. These guys weren't playing football or rugby, they were playing basketball.

 

[BlueRunner11]

K didn’t give two ***** when he had players tripping, kicking, and stomping on Timberlakes chest.

That being said wtf was that Clemson dude thinking?

 

[Bluefaithful]

Oh you're right
Sorry
And I was just at a Rugby Match

NEVER.

We hit harder herding cattle now

 

[LowCountryCat]

The seeds that Grayson Allen sowed continue to bear fruit...

 

[FtWorthCat]

Terrible foul, obviously, but the Duke player made it worse by grabbing the rim. If you're going to grab it in that situation, you better hang on. If he hadn't grabbing it at all, the fall wouldn't have been as bad.

 

[Rockfly78]

It was interesting to see K and the Clemson player make nice at the end of the game. I think that kid just lost his head for a second, which is all it takes. He seemed apologetic. Everyone is so quick to just demand that he be thrown out of basketball and such. Unless he has a history of dirty play then you just chalk it up to a dangerous lapse in judgement during a split second timeframe.

 

[Shlomo]

Meh! Some of the antics from the old John Thompson coached Georgetown teams of the 80’s make this look weak.

 

[bbnkat02]

That’s awful and nobody should be defending that garbage. Moore could have been seriously hurt.

Now, with that being said, I do think it’s beyond hypocritical for K to tongue lash anyone on injury causing plays after having his mad dog named Allen out on the court every night and NEVER suspending him for more than 1 game.

 

[Allcats08]

I can't believe the Duke team didn't attack the kid after that.

That was my biggest takeaway. Kinda surprised me. Oscar would of broke that dude in half if it was one of our guards

 

[Bigtyrone]

I am always scared to death when our guys have those breakaway situations. Any foul from behind on those plays should automatically be two and the ball.

They used to call them that way, it was treated it as a technical foul. I'm not sure when or why that was changed, maybe it was when flagrants were introduced.

Undercutting someone in the air like that is as dangerous as it gets in basketball. The potential for serious injury is worse than any hard or dirty hits in football.

 

[HagginHall1999]

Folks were complaining that Stackhouse and Vandy were dirty....nope....that is a "dirty" play.

Can't stand Duke but kudos to their players for not escalating it further. That could have turned into a full out brawl.

 

[HagginHall1999]

It's bad today but back in the day Bill Laimbeer had 3 of those a game.

Laimbeer was a total chooch.

You, petulantly halting play and demanding acknowledgement after you barely got fouled at the local rec league while going up for a layup:

 

[Kats meow]

Only if Duke was the team that fouled.

It was a charge.

 

[GoBigBlue1224]

This is interesting. Now that they get NIL deals, wonder if the schools or conference could “fine” players or suspend NIL deals to prevent situations like this.

 

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

Hard to feel bad for Dook when has had plenty of violent bs that K has allowed. Laettner stomping on our player’s chest, Hansbourogh getting punched in the nose, Allen tripping and kicking all year in 2015.

That explains it. I always thought Rex was in the trans process.
