First MSU possession Winston gets Wesson on a switch. He gets a little space going left and Wesson bumps him. In any other high major conference, that’s a foul. In the Big Ten, it’s “good defense.” If you’re an elite guard why would you want to play in the Big Ten?

Exactly. Romeo would’ve dominated any other league because he’d be at the free throw line literally all the time.

The lack of calls he got, especially when driving, drove me insane this season.

I'm not exactly sure of all the intricacies of the rules of a flagrant 1 foul, but the MSU kid caught ball, had three guys up in his grill and when he went to pivot, one of the OSU kids caught an elbow in the throat. And Sparty got a flagrant 1. I just don't like that call. What's he supposed to do? Stand there and let the OSU players hammer away at him and take the ball? All he did was make a simple move.

Agree, not a flagrant foul. Ward grabbed the rebound, was not swinging elbows, Woods sticks his face where it doesn't belong.  Now the obvious hook on hold against Morgan yesterday was not called, and there was all kinds of video evidence to review of that obvious foul, and it was not called.

K. Wesson did that several times yesterday. The difference was he was hitting Morgan and Davis in the chest to create space and contact where he got the foul. The Big Ten loves them some control.

Haha Davidson was almost on the ground by the time the contact was made. I’d like to see the block/charge call completely revamped. Officials have an extremely difficult time calling that.
