NCAA Tournament - Friday Games

1. Intentional Foul Designation
Under NCAA rules, fouling a player who does not have the ball—especially if it's done solely to stop the clock or target a poor free-throw shooter—can be ruled an Intentional Foul.
That’s not what’s really being discussed
 
CAN be. Any foul CAN be ruled an intentional foul. If a player has the ball and you go up and bear hug him, that should probably be an intentional foul.

There are ways to do it. It's why I personally hate the fouling up 3 thing, because those fouls are usually blatantly obviously intentional, and never get called. I think they should call more intentional fouls, but they don't. Grabbing a guys jersey as he dribbles by you, to stop the clock, should be intentional. But you'll never see it called. Ever.

I still stand by my original post. The best thing Santa Clara could have done would have been to foul Garrison immediately after the make. Run into him. Get tangled up. There are a million ways to have done it that wouldn't have drawn an intentional foul call, and Garrison would have been the one shooting FT's, not Oweh.
There's a reason nobody does it. They've been told its something officiating is looking to watch for. The error imo was Sandek trying to get a timeout from the wrong ref, you have to sprint towards the baseline ref doing the inbound.
 
Anyone watching the Utah State game? Stan Van Gundy has praised Calhoun for their BLOBs so many times. With so many games coming down to the wire in college hoops, it’s such an advantage if you can get three or four easy looks a game.

Calhoun will get a better job and we will be left to wonder what might have been. Meanwhile, moser will continue to kill OU basketball.
 
What the heck was the Utah state player doing after the game in the interview? Like he was eating a westside hand signal
