Yep as soon as he saw it go through the net he should've called it. He didn't. And he get's an L for it.
Isn't it the case that you have to call it BEFORE we take the ball to inbound it?
I mean yes he did try but he wasn’t ignored. Really no one to blame but himself. He hesitated (mistake 1)before trying to get his timeout. Ball was through the basket easily a second and a half before he decided to try and chase down the sideline ref (mistake 2) as UK was inbounding the ball. There was a baseline ref right in front of him when they hit their 3. He could have easily signaled directly to him after the make but he didn’t. You snooze you lose!!!!
He was instrumental in putting together the Tony Delk, Jared Prickett, Rodrick Rhodes, Walter McCarty, Rodney Dent recruiting class when he was an assistant at UK. He also met his wife in Lexington when he was at UK.
He went to Miami, OH and recruited Wally Szerbiak. Interesting that his first coaching staff at Miami was Thad Matta, Sean Miller, and Charlie Coles.
I've watched replays and noticed that it looked like Dioubate was timidly and sheepishly trying to call a timeout underneath the basket after Graves' shot went in.
Did anyone else see that or get that impression ??
That had shades of Chris Webber, as Kentucky had no timeouts left. I may be wrong, but it looked like he flashed the signal, then quickly realized and remembered we had none left and quickly dropped the signaling. What do you think ??

Herb knows the rule, or at least I would think he knows the rules, and he could not call a time out, but let him cry.
You see Sendek not calling a TO until he starts chasing the ref who is reacting to the action on the court.
Sendek isn't being truthful about this because he knows he waited too long.
Maybe next year.
You have to call timeout before the player picks up the ball because at that point the refs are watching the game action and letting the game continue.
If you let coaches wait until a player grabs the ball to inbounds and the team with the ball set up how they are going to run the play and then give the defensive team a timeout 2-3 seconds after a bucket that gives them an advantage of knowing what end of game set up the offensive team wants to run. Sendek was trying to be sneaky

I just now watched it yet again. He is clearly calling for a TO. However, DA and OO already were moving and he just joined in. LOL Whew! That could have been costly!
