Ted Valentine reffed that IU-Duke game. Nuff said.

Didn't remember TV reffing that game. That does explain it.
Also though, Jim Burr was working the stomp no call game with UK/Duke. That explains a lot too I think.

It was a love-tap at best.

I remember rooting for Duke against UNLV as well and Duke was actually my second favorite team up until the stomp and the subsequent hose job of IU in the following game.
 
It wasn't a kick, it was a clear and blatant stomp to a defenseless player flat on the ground. The stanchion incident was probably worthy of a flagrant 1 but at least debatable.

uhh...I hated him too...but not because anything to do with UK...I loved him for beating them...

no..

I hate him and that team and the refs for royally screwing over IU in 1992 in the Final Four...

do y'all realize that IU had 4 or 5 starters foul out in that game?

most rediculously called game in the history of college basketball...

I will always hold a place in Dante's inferno...in the deepest of pits for Laettner and that team...

Every 3 minutes a Dukie was on the floor wallowing around like his leg was broken.

What a pitifully called game.

The Duke, Notre Dame ACC tourney game was the same  in the last 7 or 8 minutes.Even the announcers were like WTF.

When you play the Dukies your playing against the refs too.

I'm afraid that's the treatment UK is gonna get the next 4 weeks.

I'm afraid you are probably right. Anything for TV ratings. Hopefully their will be a GIANTS type defeat in the championship.

Tbh I don't think he should have been ejected for the stomp and here's why:
1. It wasn't a hard stomp more of a tab.
2. In today's time it would have only been a flagrant 1
3. I couldn't think of a third point but felt I needed one.
It's just how I felt. The game was to big to through out one of the key players

Every time you watched him play you were gonna be entertained. It was like watching the Yankees play. You want them to lose but somehow they make every play to win. That was him. Dude hit so many big shots. He wanted to be like Mike.

just watched that game last night, Bailey, Henderson, Graham and Calbert all fouled out. Damon fouled out very early in the 2nd half too. gut wrenching to watch, don't know why i put myself thru it. loved that team though.

Here you go.

Just watch this again and man does it make me miss this team. I went to IU 90-94 great basketball years. Still upset we didn't win a championship during my years at IU. I did have a nice constellation prize I sold my Final Four tickets for $1900. I know some of you think I'm crazy for not going to the game, but I was a broke ass college student.
