I had read on another board that CR traveled...after looking at the replay twice it looks like he did but what ref would even think to call it at that point of the game
I was just on the Oakland message board and saw a couple of fans who are persistent in thinking they got hosed. What can you say. Even if CR did travel what ref in their right mind would reverse that, no matter which team made that shot? This poster also claimed their coach protested the game, but again, don't expect anything to come out of that. I don't recall any time in any sports league the outcome of a game being reversed.
Unfortunately there was also a poster who called himself a Bradley fan that posted a real low class post telling their fans to get over the loss since it's just the CIT! Maybe so, but it is a BIG deal for those teams that normally have no shot at postseason from conferences like theirs. Plus even for us, the CIT has turned out to be a very competitive tourney.
Anyway, I had to respond to this person, but I doubt he posts here with the name he used. I don't think he would last too long on here anyway!

I agree with you. Refs aren't looking for a travel with a second left...
Can't balme the Oakland fans for complaining either, especially after losing their league championship on shot with a couple secons left.
I'm sure we would be doing the same thing if we were on the road
Here's what the Oakland coach said after the NDSU loss.
???It was near death,??? 25-year Oakland coach Greg Kampe said. ???It??™s a loss that will stay with me the rest of my life.
Geez...I wonder how he feels now....I kind of feel for they guy
Great game yesterday! I was flying in from Atlanta to Detroit so I only caught the first half. Yes, we've had more than our share of heartbreak this year but that's why we all love college basketball so much. Oakland's team is an up and coming team, one that's very exciting to watch. I don't care about the non-traveling call, time left, no time left end of the game situation. Your team won the game, much respect. Although heartbroken but hey, that's life, right? What a shot!!!!!!
Maybe our teams can work on a contract to play in the near future. I would love to see more games played between Oakland and the MVC. Actually, I'd love to see Oakland land in the MVC one day.
Anyways, good luck, we'll be rooting for your guys to take it all!
It is reasons like this that I NEVER leave a game early. PS, I enjoyed our twenty some student section floor rush, lol
THAT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! I felt lost, we ran in circles haha
(WE obv do not have much rushing-floor experience. )
The players all left to quick...the were supposed to stand and jump with us for like 5 min.
#4 on sportscenter was acceptable! and now on my DVR forever haha....but behind an outfield assist in the WBC and a Wade dunk (he throws down like that every night) ....the back to back to back to back jacks were worthy....but it is only spring training....

That's the first thing I thought. How could that shot not be better than dunk or a throw from the outfield. If BU played in the Big East it would have been #1
I thought he had traveled when I saw it, but the replay shows two steps and a shot. It was legit!
Also, there was no way it took him over a second to get it off after he caught it.
I hope he didn't take two steps. If he did the officials missed the travel. You are only allowed One and one half steps for it to legal. Who cares now were playing tomorrow night and I was very impressed with Oakland tough way to lose.Go Braves
BTW - I would take Kangas and Benson on my team in a heartbeat. They'd both start and be major contributors on any team in the MVC. I really hope AT was taking notes on how to play with his build and length. Benson was no taller or no beefier than AT, and quite frankly he owned the post. Kangas was the exact kind of player that this year's BU team was missing. Both of those players have the size and skill to play at any level of college basketball IMO.
Also, overall I was very impressed with Oakland's team and wish we had some of their size.

Go Braves!
Go Grizzlies!
You have a very GOOD team,Great offensive sets,your BIGS play to the best of their abilities and you are very well coached.
I will probably get killed for writing this but, if we played you 10 times you would win 8.
The best to you and your team G-Mac.

Well said. Would like to know their story...recruiting, coaching, etc...on how they got where they are now.

Wondering if you would think the same thing with a healthy AW and WE?
What if they did not have Benson and Kangas?
