Go back to when Jerome dribbled ball off his foot.

He picked it up with two hands and then started dribbling again....

The 3 pt call was correct...but it should have never happened. Double dribble right in front of an official.
I SCREAMED that double dribble when that happened. My wife came running in, thinking I had a Heart attack.

Refs trying to drive another nail into the coffin of college basketball.

But I’ll never cry for a team that hacked their way past UK. Never in a million years.

You’re a ****in retard bro. Refs don’t raise one hand and blow their ****in whistle on 3pt attempts. And that was the same ref that let a UVA player dribble off of his foot and pick the ball up off the floor with two hands and dribble again. Bet u missed that one too there didn’t u billy badass?

You sir are a moron, and you clearly are new to basketball. We're not talking about the un called double dribble, we were talking about your nonsense regarding the ref raising his hand due to a foul being called when it was REALLY due to the shooter attempting a 3 you jackass.

Effing Zion runs over two guys and they swallow the whistle. The refs have been deciding games rather than calling "balls and strikes."

Virginia may be the worst champ ever I'd they win. Played a weak path and almost lost their last 3 games against a 12, 3 and 5 seed
They played in the best conference in the country and they beat the hottest team in the tournament to get to the championship game. What more can you ask for?

I don't understand the logic of it was a foul but u can't call in that situation.........


no if it's a foul the first 39 minutes of the game it's a foul in the last minute as well.

We don't just change rules.

Okay, well..a double dribble in the first 39 minutes of the game should also be a double dribble in the last minute of the game. Anyway you slice it, Auburn was robbed/screwed with no lube.

Refs need to be replaced by robots. What a year they have had.
Yeah I used to be a huge proponent for keeping the human element in the game but it’s getting really hard to watch a bunch of incompetent refs every damn game. Any ref should’ve known that was a double dribble. Hell, anyone that knows the game could see it plain as day. I couldn’t really care who wins but Auburn should be playing for the championship. It’s hard to truly believe that there aren’t true biases going on in the world of the NCAA.

If u call that a foul on the 3 pointer, then there should have been atleast 30 more fouls called you jacka$$es. Moot point if the refs knew the rules & called the double dribble. The winner of this bogus tournament will have an asterisk next to them no doubt.

All these folks griping about that call would be singing a different tune if it’s a UK player shooting and not getting the call.

Maybe..maybe not..but a lot of us are used to being screwed like that. Hell, we (UK) probably wouldn't have got a replay to show that it was a foul anyway. So, we wouldn't have known regardless. Lol..

No, they won't, whoever wins this tournament will be the National Champions for 2019.

NCAA doesn't want a guy like Pearl raising the trophy Monday.

Bennett fits the elitist narrative better for corporate America and its proper image/ elitist/racist paradigm:

1. White guy
2. No personality
3. Not an NCAA obstructionist
4. coaches at a high level academic school (i.e, the myth that academics matter)
5. Gets kids to stick around
6. Rags to riches story based on losing last year in the first round


They love this crap.

Hopefully Uncle Tom's Cabin or T-Tech takes him down Monday night.

Agreed. That’s why you call the double dribble and it never would have gotten to the foul.

That foul they had left to give to take ended up losing Auburn the game he isn't making a 40 footer at the buzzer most likely.

The conspiracies on this board get wilder and wilder by the day. There are so many it’s nearly impossible to keep track of.

A bit pathetic and silly but I guess it makes people feel better.

Does this make me change my mind about Tony Bennett? Not at all. Still don't want him at UK if Cal leaves.

Bruce should have fouled when it was a four point game and 17 seconds. Instead he lets Guy make the three. Foul twice there and there won't be enough time left for what happened.

If that had been Kentucky, you guys would have went crazy and you would be screaming we got screwed by the officials.

Few are concerned with the 3 or foul....that was a foul.

The double dribble in front of an official well before that shot was not called and cost Auburn the game.

That's about a 50/50 call throughout the season. It may have been a foul, but you can't end this game with a call like that and even more so since Virginia shouldn't have had the ball anyway
