Meltdown in Badgertown

on the block of a Basabe dunk was clearly a foul, the badger player got nothing but Basabe's arms, and there wer numerous times when Gatens got hacked shoved and a full body bump in front of the officials and nothing was called,
besides Iowa didn't make a Basket for the last 7:39 of the game, if it were not for Wiscy hittinf 70% of their shots in the 1st half the game would not have been close, other than Gatens hot hand the rest of the team shot 40% from the field in the 1st half for a overall 53% for the 1st half
 
LG take a look at the replay if you can, but the block in question the ball was below the rim and on a upward flight, no matter how you twist it, the ball was in no way goal tending because of your interpretation there were many dunk attempts by Iowa players that should have been goal tending
 
Those of you trolling the Wisconsin boards make sure you wish them luck at Ohio State. They would be doing Iowa a huge favor by beating them.
 
Who cares what Wisconsin or any other teams think. They are p*** off that we are no longer a doormat to their 20+ pt. wins. We have a team who are beginning to take on the mentality of their coach and they hate it.

That is not how I saw it. I saw the ball above the rim, strike the backboard, begin its downward trajectory, and then the block by Basabe. I thought it was a goaltend live and I thought it was a goaltend upon replay.

Isnt every shot that hits the glass going to be on its way down?

No. Think of a 5th grader shooting a layup. It is more infrequent at the college level, but there are times when the glass is used while the ball is on the way up.

However, the NCAA has deemed that any ball that has touched the glass is on its way down, even if it is, in fact, on its way up.
 
Poor Wisky fans.

You mean less frequent? Young kids who struggle to to get the ball high off the glass or have poor habits might try to bank it in from that low trajectory angle, kind of hard to explain it, but I do know exactly what you are referencing. At the college level, you basically never see it as guys release points are basically at that level of the backboard.

Only has to be above the rim

Nope, I meant "more infrequent" to emphasize that even at low-level basketball it does not happen too often, but perhaps "less frequent" would have been easier to read.

At the college level, the play that I think I see the most upward trajectory bank shots is reverse layups in which the shooter jumps from a good distance on the near side of the hoop and, as a result, has a relatively low release point (as you correctly mentioned). Also, you see it now and again when a player is falling to the floor when shooting.
