Whatever, I reffed for 15, I’m 1 row from the court and sorry we didn’t win due to bad reffing.
the Purdue fans complaints
- Thread starter wheezer
- Start date
I never said that. I just the whistles started going my way was my impression the last 5 minutes...that was not the case the 1st 35 minutes.
Just watched the trap.....I don't believe it was a foul now watching the replay.
They did miss a foul where trevion got hit on one of his back downs. Should have been a plus one but we won by two so lol.
Honestly, there were one or two people there whining. The majority of the people stated Rutgers deserved the win. Yeh we can alway focus on the negative, and cry about how we are looked down upon, but that really wasnt the case.
this was the thread and a lot of people disagreed with with OP.
overall the accepted the loss in my view.

The play I am referring to with Williams was not the walk late in the game. I think with 3 or so minutes he was called for a foul that live it didn’t appear he fouled. Not that it is evidence but Williams politely talked with the official.
Again. I am not saying we won because of officiating. Net net we probably got the worse end when looking at the entire game. I just thought after cliff went down there were things that could have or should have been called that weren’t.
The point really is that the game collectively was not called one sided in favor of the home team. That foul call against Caleb was an absolute momentum killer that started the run that put Purdue up by 10. There are always calls that can go either way and it may be the case that during the last few minutes of the game we got a larger percentage of those types of calls / no calls. Nothing called though in those last few minutes stood out enough for the announcers (or even national media sources Tweeting) to comment on an obvious bad call. The 3rd foul on Caleb was replayed multiple times and there was consensus commentary that it was just wrong.
Good post and reference to that women's game. Purdue fans complaining about the officiating in this game need to have their heads examined. The refs killed RU in this game.
Can’t let these go. In a great good news story for RU hoops you’re implying we won due to ref help. In your own words “I thought RU got the whistle in a big way after Cliff went out” and you offer these 3 as examples I have to say again I think you’re a contrarian trying to prove some superior hoops insight.
Harper over the back … when? on the foul shot with a loafing flat footed Williams? I say perhaps, but just prior Edey bent Cliff’s head backwards with 2 arms coming down over the top of him, then he elbows PM in the face (lets call it a wash and not a big RU advantage).
Phantom call on Williams … I’ll tell you like I tell other “refs” watch the tape. Late in a very effective trap Williams pivots and uses his forearm to clear space by pushing Cliff 4 feet towards the baseline. A clear offensive foul and it came 4-5 seconds into a non-3 second call. Where’s the big RU advantage here?
Ivey Trap … at that point in a game, on that part of the court, Rutgers did exactly what any coach would want, and they did it well. The defenders kept a wide base and moved their hands denying a pass. Contact came NOT by reaching but by Ivey trying to force through the trap. He stumbled on the defenders set feet. A travel was the right call. We would have been getting screwed if it was called a foul. Sorry no big RU advantage here either.
There was one where he was straight up and down might be what you are referring too. Not as horrendous as the Ivey calls but I remember that one.
Agree on all. Should have been 3 seconds on Williams anyway on that one
If you get a moment, thank them for punching our ticket in 2020 and getting us on track for one in 2022.
I'll concede that refs are human and after the fans crucified them for the call where Cliff was injured, things were much more "fair".
The Purdue coach will use this game as a motivator for them. A road conference loss in December isn’t necessarily a bad loss.
How can we be rivals when we never lose to them
? It’s Kind of like the football penn stste Rutgers rivalry. Purdue is just our little sisterWhile those last two calls were absolutely the right calls those are not calls that always go to the D. We don’t get both of those on the road. Purdue did get two phantom calls which built their lead and their bigs also got away with a lot especially when we had anyone other than Cliff on them. The refs are never perfect and we can find bad calls in every game that we play. We do it here in this board too.
As usual you outdid your self as the best "self loathing RU so called fan on this board". RU did "not" get away with anything in that game. No wonder you are not reffing anymore.
On the Trap and travel play there we’re all RU fans in red cheering and one guy dressed I believe in Greene shaking his or her head “no” on that call. Hmmmm
He shuffle his feet even before attempting to split the defenders. There was no contact with him then. The contact when he split the defenders was initiated by him. He took 3 more steps at that time. It was like watching a little league play where a kid picks up the ball and runs when he is under pressure. He panicked under pressure and reacted poorly.
I'm really hoping for another of these threads tomorrow called "the SHU fans complaints"
2 bad things happened there
1. Obviously Ivey panicking
2. Why was the ball inbounded there?
Stop it! I was cheering and on the fllor 30 seconds after the game, with a mask.
it was after a TO correct? After a Rutgers basket, meaning inbounder could run baseline
That was a joke. Greene is not a real color but there was a fan not in red who disagreed with that call. Was around 5 rows up too….lol
I was wearing red.
On another topic.....we had too many 100s selling tickets to Purdue.....not cool. If I wasnt so lazy I should have written down all the seats that sold to Purdue and called them out by seat number.
