I just barely watched on the dvr after being at the game. The announcers

were way off base on that one. Haws looked like he was bracing for the big guy to slam into him, but the big didn’t come back. Then he had to hustle to close out on the shooter and instinctively pushed off to get momentum going in the other direction.

Haws “dirty play”

Agreed. They way overreacted to it. Nothingburger

2/23/20 2:00am

Agreed, and I struggled to believe the announcers obsessing over it so badly.

Farnham is such a Gonzaga hack. He’s called these games many times.

You can’t call a foul on a play where you didn’t call a foul

I agree a common foul would have been a good call my point was it wasn’t even

gwalker

2/23/20 2:00pm

Agreed. Just a hard nosed foul. Not dirty

Their reaction to physical play will be noted in scouting reports going forward

Toolsen lit into them for flopping. Tillie especially

2/23/20 2:06am

Which I think got in their heads too

What I would give to hear Toolson miked up...

Mark Few’s main comment after was that his guys were not tough enough in the ga.

I disagree.

LifeLongLakerFan

2/23/20 2:08am

You are free to do so. It was almost mostly benign

2/23/20 2:09am

Thank you for granting me that permission. You are being a homer here.

LifeLongLakerFan

2/23/20 2:13am

I think you took offense to my comment when none was intended

2/23/20 2:14am

Also, the refs agree with me

2/23/20 2:16am

Not accurate. They couldn’t call that a foul retroactively. Only can do that

LifeLongLakerFan

2/23/20 2:21am

Right. So they (and you) agree with me

2/23/20 2:22am

I don’t agree with you here. Not a big deal. Reasonable minds can differ.

LifeLongLakerFan

2/23/20 2:27am

Ok. It seems like we are saying exactly the same thing. But I’ll leave it at that

2/23/20 2:28am

I think it was clearly a foul, and was also a bit cheap. Not necessarily

LifeLongLakerFan

2/23/20 2:36am

Trent plaisted totally thinks you are losing it if you ever had it

travelcoug

2/23/20 9:11am

You hardly sound like a "reasonable mind" on this one.

2/23/20 10:19am

So the commentators, who watch hundreds, if not thousands, of college b-ball

LifeLongLakerFan

2/23/20 2:54pm

So doing nothing was correct. A foul

If that ESPN announcer didn't make a huge deal about it clamoring for a flagrant

2/23/20 2:11am

It was a virtue signal mountain out of a molehill effort by them

2/23/20 2:12am

Yep. There wasn't much on-court drama beyond Petrusev flopping and then whining.

Mitty

2/23/20 2:21am

There were a few things the announcer wouldn't let go that were embarrassing....

mwcoug

2/23/20 6:24am

Agree. Fake news.

2/23/20 7:01am

This is spot on. I also loved how they kept

Even the guys back at the ESPN studio called out the commentators...which was

2/23/20 10:26am

Rui or Clarke would have just ran right through haws. Petrusev is soft. Make no

BYUheaven

2/23/20 2:17am

Agree completely

BYU '80

2/23/20 2:40am

Right. If I'm a Zag fan, I'm more concerned about that than Haws being dirty or

2/23/20 2:42am

*soft tonight. That’s been a very physical team all year long.

Mr. Scoobs

2/23/20 6:07am

Which means they are mentally soft. You could tell in Few’s postgame comments

2/23/20 7:04am

I think they just lost their #1 seed.

ochobeeguy

2/23/20 8:37am

No chance. Lunardi even said as much

RICoug

2/23/20 10:10am

I didn't realize there wasn't anyone of quality behind them. Mostly 5+ losses.

Stop making excuses. It was a dirty play. Hawes deserves the criticism.

Only reason it became a deal is Farnham making it a big deal.

Mr. Scoobs

2/23/20 6:08am

Amazing, since earlier Haws about had his head removed and nothing was said.

2/23/20 6:21am

Do refs watch replay in slow motion?

Hmmmm. Petrusev draws blood on Tooley then can’t take a little push.

2/23/20 7:32am

A fun thing about this victory has been reading all the Zag fans whining

BeardedSpock

2/23/20 8:18am

It was a bad no-call that favored Gonzaga. They got a 3 out of it.

ochobeeguy

2/23/20 8:35am

It was probably a foul before the shot
