Game Thread: Illinois at Northwestern

Hook and holds have a chokehold on the big 10

 

[Flyin' Illini]

Red?

 

[BBlock24]

it looks like Wagler is going for the ball but he does grab Reid’s arm accidentally. Shouldn’t be anything.

 

[hiberto]

DJ you really are blind, they're orange jerseys not red

 

[blife]

How is this a flagrant? Hook and hold get the F out

 

[Marshall_Lucky]

"Red 23"

 

[illiniguy24]

Wagler

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Wagler needs to stop all that over dribbling.

That was his issue in the first half, which is why Brad took him off the ball.

 

[Illini2010-11]

"Red 23"...somebody failed colors

 

[BlabDunkAnd1]

This is getting ridiculous with these appeals

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Good grief. I thought that was only a rebound call.

 

[BoiseBaller]

Wasn't even a hook let alone a hold.

 

[TrahNeb]

Doesn't look great in slow mo

 

[aaeismacgychel]

oh good lord, love these appeals. For what it's worth I think this is an intentional foul.

 

[Iloveorangekoolaid]

 

[UCantHideYer]

Red?

 

[TheodoreRex]

College basketball is becoming borderline unwatchable if they keep callin this crap flagrant... Just pure insanity- not at all the intent of flagrant fouls.

 

[Indy Illini Fan]

I am so over this hook and hold BS … and I’m over this appeal BS …

Takes away from the game … Dumb …

 

[aveseaboy]

Probably a hook but he fouled Keaton before

 

[illiniguy24]

Everything is a hook and hold when you put it in slow motion

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Our D has been so good with Z in it. Please stop sitting him for Tomi.

 

[ILL-Intentions]

I’m guessing Reid has been talking to Wagler all game. It’s the most emotion I’ve seen from Wagler

 

[foby]

Need to teach KW not to hook. He should stay in school one more year.

[FloridaMan]

Announcers (read, B10) really trying to sell it.
