NCAA: Seton Hall v Arkansas - Fri 1:30pm 3/17/17

here's the rule:
The official NCAA rulebook (page 47) says:

"… A flagrant 1 personal foul is a personal foul that is deemed excessive in nature and/or unnecessary, but is not based solely on the severity of the act. Examples include, but are not limited to: 1. Causing excessive contact with an opponent; 2. Contact that is not a legitimate attempt to play the ball or play; 3. Pushing or holding a player from behind to prevent a score …"

As you see, point #2 is where this was flagrant.

So you agree that the foul at the end of Vanderbilt-Northwestern should have been called flagrant 1?

it could have but that one wasn't anywhere near as clear on replay as this one was.

What's worse is the blatant missed travel on Arkansas right before the flagrant 1.

2nd dude to catch the ball takes 3 steps before he starts to dribble. SHU should have had the ball back with a chance to win and not even needed to foul.
