As they say “Scoreboard”. However that’s a ****** way to end a game let alone a Final Four game. The refs call the questionable foul on the 3 point shot but miss the double dribble call before it.

That call was like calling pass interference on a last play Hail Mary pass.

That was a legit call

So you think it's better to swallow the whistle? That's what happened with Duke in the UCF game. Cost UCF the game, IMO.

Foul is a foul. If it's a foul, you gotta call it. If your gonna let them play or call a certain style of game, that's fine as long as it's consistent but if you make that call in the first minute of the game, then you gotta make it in the last minute as well, IMO.

So... What do you guys think? Is there anything to this Duke/Nike pay to play report over Zion Williams?

They don't get any sleazier or dishonest that that attorney, Michael Avenatti. That dude is a real snake.

But I do suspect that Nike has been steering certain 5 star recurits to Nike brand schools....though they may've gone to that school anyway.
It also wouldn't surprise me if Nike paid Zion's mom some upfront cash advance for a future contract that he would for sure eventually get

I'm not sure Duke (or Kentucky or Kansas or UNC, etc) was involved with this directly though.

Should be a good game!

WAHOOWA

 

[Buzzbait]

Cmon Texas Tech wake up and get in there!

 

[Buzzbait]

Tech showing signs of life

 

[Buzzbait]

Now we've got a ball game. 21-21

 

[Robbieac]

Great come back Tech. Now keep the lead!

 

[Buzzbait]

Wow! Great 1st half.

 

[Robbieac]

They need to start calling shooting fouls.

Culver has been fouled at least 3 times on shots and they weren’t called.

 

[uvaballa]

Good half of b-ball. Jerome is the only marquee player playing well on both teams. We’ll see who steps up the second half.

Overtime

This was going to be a heartbreaker for whoever lost in overtime. Great game, but a tough finish for Tech.

 

[uvaballa]

Hell yeah Wahoos! We the ****in champs. ACC back on top! Glad Hunter outplayed Culver.

Great game TTU much respect. You guys were great.

A top ACC school is always gonna beat a top Big 12 school when it comes to basketball. UVA has been battle tested for the last 3 years

The 2019 NCAA Basketball Champions are the University of Virginia Cavaliers
