Fouling 3 PT shooters

[ScarletDave]

2 against Illinois. 2 today including 4-pt play. Pretty sure by 4 different players including Harper. Stupidity all around.

We had a 14-4 run, cut it to 4, and then Harper decided to gift them a 4-point play. What a momentum swing.

I didn’t see todays game but the one on ace va Illinois was bs - he never touched the guy. That said it’s hard to win when you make this mistake repeatedly.

Jeremiah has done 1 a game in 6-7 games. Unforgivable for a senior that loses his IQ repeatable . How he has not been rained in and how have the coaches Pike and all the guard coaches are failing in their jobs terribly.

One of them looked to me like the shooter kicked a leg out to then be knocked over on the follow through, ref should not have bought it.

They usually aren’t making contact..they are closing out and not giving the shooter room to land. It’s a fine line. If JWill and Harper don’t close out hard, people would complain they weren’t trying. Well, people would complain about DWill..Harper gets a free pass that no one else gets.

I agree.

One of the first defensive principles I learned: Don't foul jump shooters.

Jwill actually hip checked the guy, absolutely ridiculous play. At least Harper’s guy made the 3, only costing an additional point

Poor closeout technique - coaching again.
