Welcome to the post-K world, Dukies. Zero chance he doesn’t get that call. Zero. 

My heart isn't bleeding for the Dookies, but even Ray Charles could've seen that the foul came before the buzzer. The fact that they reviewed it -- and STILL got it wrong -- totally flummoxes me. Though I suppose it shouldn't -- with how awful officiating is these days.

Back in 2017, Zach Gunn was one of IU's top recruits but he left cuz Crean got fired.  Turns out what a huge bullet Indiana dodged as all that ever happened to him was injuries. 

Unfortunately for me, he eventually made his way to IUPUI where he proceeded to have two season ending injuries before he could have any significant playing time.  It's almost like dude was born with glass bones and paper skin.

Have never heard of West Coast Baptist or know what division they play in, but D1 California Baptist leads them 123-40 with 3:19 left.

The NCCAA is basically the religious schools where, unlike private schools where religion is a motif and the foundation of their directive, they teach Christian education exclusively, so make that what you will.

That statement says that it doesn't matter if the foul happened before or after the buzzer since it did come while the ball was still in the air.

If the officials are so quick to turn on Duke, maybe they'll lose their gloss when it comes to recruiting quicker than I thought. One can hope.

To the limited extent that Duke getting jobbed would ever bother me, this is the deal here: They called a foul in real time. Then they reviewed it and waved it off. That means they thought the contact came after the clock hit zero. Debatable, but that means they didn’t know the rule. 3 refs at the major college level Didn’t. Know. The. Rule.

Wow, is that a problem.
