I've gotta say Coach K is right on this one. I don't really disagree with the rule itself, but I agree with Coach K on his assessment of the rule. IF you are going to implement a totally new game-changing rule such as this, then you MUST at least mark the zone where this rule applies on the floor. You cannot CHANGE the game so drastically with a rule like this and then leave it to the ref's discretion on when it will apply or not.<br /><br />Again, though this rule DRASTICALLY changes the game of basketball.. I do not really disagree with it. I disagree with the incredible lack of intelligence in implementing it. How can you leave so much discretion in the referee's hands.. who already suck at their job without this type of discretion?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3538159334790759434.post-90752503122321512322009-10-26T13:19:13.124-04:002009-10-26T13:19:13.124-04:00Don't forget about the "jump-ball" b...Don't forget about the "jump-ball" bulls*** vs. Va Tech in the ACC Tourney.<br /><br />Carolina gets all the calls.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3538159334790759434.post-91299832928211855622009-10-26T13:18:35.560-04:002009-10-26T13:18:35.560-04:00Just watch the YouTube Miami-UNC game last year in...Just watch the YouTube Miami-UNC game last year in Chapel Hill.<br /><br />Most UNC-biased, ridiculous non-calls on goaltends, out-of-bounds, hard fouls you'll ever see.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3538159334790759434.post-52611805839466124902009-10-26T10:45:31.891-04:002009-10-26T10:45:31.891-04:00Ah, some Duke haters are just idiots.
If you thin...Ah, some Duke haters are just idiots.<br /><br />If you think that the refs are biased in favor of the other team (say Duke), then you <i>absolutely</i> agree with Coach K here and want it to be marked on the floor. Not having it marked on the floor makes it much easier for refs to be biased and call it differently on the two teams.<br /><br />That Coach K is calling for it to be marked indicates that he doesn't believe that the refs are biased in favor of Duke.<br /><br />That all the Carolina fans disagree and want it to remain unmarked just shows that the remarks about Carolina refs are still true. ;)John Thackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15269867695937765049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3538159334790759434.post-54615942636058745042009-10-26T09:01:09.441-04:002009-10-26T09:01:09.441-04:00I know everyone hates on K and Duke for their &quo...I know everyone hates on K and Duke for their "flopping", but you have to admit he does have a point here.
