Is unimpeded to the basket when you do not have possession yet?
That's an NBA rule, not college. I'm guessing they called it because he didn't make a play on the ball, but not sure on that one since the PSU player didn't have the ball yet.
gut. wrenching.

Tough call, but it seemed clear he would have had the ball and a clear path to the basket.
The reason he didn't have the ball yet is Tate grabbed his arm to prevent him from getting to the ball.
They will call that every time. And since there's no longer an intentional foul all of that type are flagrant IIRC.
Need it ALL game long.
Probably, but I don't think that's part of the definition of a flagrant foul. It's either excessive contact or not making a play on the ball.
Sure, it was definitely a foul. Just a marginal call to make it flagrant.
Please explain, I sounded to me like the announcer was saying that they did away with excessive and just went to flagrant for all those instances. Is that the right interpretation?

Solid post and analogy. Thanks for sharing-Just finished the game, I was out, so I had to watch it delayed. This post will ramble a little bit, so skip it if you please. I certainly don't have the track record of some of our more illustrious posters.
I teach high school English and Theatre. I took two years off while my daughter completed her senior year in high school and her first year in college. In those two years, I watched someone else direct the program, never thinking I would go back.
As I watched their work, I was so dismayed that there was so much talent, talent that I had worked with, that was left on the stage in mediocre shows. I knew the actors in our school had worlds more talent than what was being shown.
This is the game I just watched. Our players decided to let their talent take over, and almost prevailed, despite the lackluster direction they are being given. We should have won this game easily...we have better players. What we don't have is better coaching.
Not if we spot them 20 points.Maybe we could , if we played like we did in the 2nd half.
Is it sad that I don't care anymore? At this point I'm not even upset about losses because I feel it's another step towards the change that is needed. An NCAA tournament berth in a year when the Big Ten was down would have been nothing special, in my opinion, so I think this is all for the better.

The Talent is here to compete and win games the Disconnect is we are not winning. This is a real head scratcher for me.
We have to be honest that in most matchups, we are worse at the following spots than our opponent:Illinois came out the first half and dug a huge hole.
Can't tell me jet lag had any thing to do with such a lack luster start.
The initial plan to pound the ball down low would have worked if those soft bunnies would have fallen. Illinois was out played in the paint once again.
I love this team-It has Size-Talent and Heart. But there is something wrong with the chemistry on both side of the Ball.
We fought hard and clawed back in this game a trait that shows these kids never give up.

People mention are experience all of the time but realistically 3 of are worst performers in Big Ten play are seniors. Outside of Hill and Morgan (on offense) are best players are freshman/sophomores.
