Haws “dirty play”

cougarmanguy All-American

2/23/20 1:55am

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

gwalker

2/23/20 1:58am

Agreed. They way overreacted to it. Nothingburger

cougarmanguy

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

SlantRoute

2/23/20 10:36am

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

BYU '80

2/23/20 2:04am

Toolsen lit into them for flopping. Tillie especially

cougarmanguy

2/23/20 2:06am

Which I think got in their heads too

cougarmanguy

2/23/20 2:08am

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.

eyes4byu

2/23/20 2:24pm

I disagree.

LifeLongLakerFan

2/23/20 2:08am

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

cougarmanguy

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

cougarmanguy

2/23/20 2:14am

Also, the refs agree with me

cougarmanguy

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

cougarmanguy

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

cougarmanguy

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.

SaintGeorgeYFan

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

pappabear246

2/23/20 9:15am

I was just playing on the first part of my response

LifeLongLakerFan

2/23/20 2:18am

Meh. I don’t know that I’ve had a lot of history

cougarmanguy

If woolridge had done the exact same thing

It’s a basketball play and about positioning. Petrusev flopped. It should ha

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

westsidecoug

2/23/20 2:11am

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

cougarmanguy

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.

This is spot on. I also loved how they kept

SaintGeorgeYFan

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

westsidecoug

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

BoiseBlueCoug

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.

Could it have been a foul, yes. Was it dirty? Get real dude.

It should be noted all the halftime studio commentators...

TempeCoug

2/23/20 5:02am

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.

Count Cougar

2/23/20 6:21am

Do refs watch replay in slow motion?

QHallEsq

2/23/20 6:26am

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

qom

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

I actually thought it should have been flagrant 1.

2/23/20 10:13am

And, as we all know, you thought wrong.

Mitty
