He's allowed to get part of the arm if he is straight up and down. There can be tons of contact...

...but if he is straight up and down (and isn't jumping into the player) it isn't a foul.

That block by Mika was unreal. What made it better was the Zags fans booing it

it was clean, but Kaufusi over the back was iffy. I think it's a good no-call,

I think Kaufusi's contact was after the block, but that was the only thing that

agreed, and I think a good no-call

it was close, but I think no one was looking at Kaufusi at that moment in time

Refs were all distracted thinking that Mika's block was going to be on ...

I loved it

I also loved how Mika kept going and staring down the student section

there was a little bit of body contact, but it was incidental

I thought Mika went straight up, body contact was initiated by Collins

nothing like the contact from Shaq Jr when he backs Mika down in the post.

the fans went ballistic, so much so I had to text my brother to ask if it was

they're fans, of course they want a foul. MC would have done the same.

I want it on a poster.

I watched it several times. It was a nice, clean block. Typically missed fouls

2/27/17 11:22am

If the guy making the block gets a full hand on the ball...

I prefer it called this way. Defense without touching is nearly impossible.

Im so used to having the WCC refs call some very poor fouls

I love Kaufusi's shove in the back. He's such a nice guy, but has so much

Whats the point of making a 1 minute video of a 3 second clip in a loop?

The only thing wrong is it isn't a few reps longer

I love how the Gonzaga bench were all on their feet expecting the big dunk...

It was pretty amazing that the refs got it right. It's hard to give a no-call on a two handed swat like that.

If it were Child's it would have been a foul

I'm just glad our guys got to play a more physical brand of basketball. It's also nice to see them whine less

It was a perfect volleyball block. No body contact at all.

Mika's block was amazing. Wasn't that the same side of the same basket where
