Flagrant foul

[Dubl R 1]

as I noted above-

the explanation given to the announcers was the one ref who overturned the violation ruled it was in possession in the frontcourt before being tipped back to the backcourt

If that is the case, why wasn’t the shot clock reset to 30 seconds on a change of possession?… it wasn’t even reset to 20 .. it remained at 18 seconds when they inbounded the ball

the ruling was NOT that possession had changed, but that a Drake player had the ball in the frontcourt but then it was tipped by a Bradley player back into the backcourt. So the 30 sec possession clock was not changed, but the 10-second backcourt count was restarted.
Of course anyone with eyes could see the ball never went into the frontcourt.

To be fair- Drake outplayed Bradley and would have won regardless of the bad calls, but that doesn't negate that there were numerous really bad calls, the ridiculous flagrant, over-the-back calls that wasn't whistled allowing Manyawu to grab multiple offensive rebounds that shouldn't have been allowed, the gift FTs to Stirtz when he wasn't even shooting and probably wasn't even fouled, and others - and every single one of them went against Bradley.

Gotcha...yeah that's nuts....the ball never even made it across the timeline. Didn't this same crew do the Drake Belmont game?....Drake shot 20 more free throws than Belmont...laughable..

Yes. And I told my good friend after the Drake / Belmont game that if we got hosed by the officials like Belmont did, we were cooked. As it turns out, BU just needed to play better, but Drake benefitted from a lot of calls alllllll weekend.

YES! If anyone had a beef about officiating in the tournament, it was Belmont in the Drake game. They really got screwed.

Interesting to hear the national announcers' thoughts about the play late in the Drake game that led up to Duke's Technical Foul. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/5iXwyH9CRxw

Exactly why I was so confused. I was watching this broadcast. They never once mentioned there might be a technical foul against Bradley.

We didn't lose BECAUSE of that play, but that sequence ended up burying us both in points and mentally.
