Was infuriating to me. We ALWAYS get that call against us, 100% of the time. Happened to Festus in a crucial moment in the NCAA Tourney when his elbow hit someone behind him. He was going up for a rebound and the dude's head got hit inadvertantly. Festus was just gathering himself to extend his arms up. Ridiculous and a huge change in momentum in that game. Nobody cared but us. It happened to LaChance trying to swing the ball over his head against a defender that was in his space. There was nowhere for his arm to go. It happened to Matthew Fisher Davis in the NIT game. That one was almost identical to the one last night. What do they always say after we are called for that??: It doesn't matter why it happened...any contact above the shoulder will always get that call. It was the same thing, exactly. They saw it clearly on the monitor. Yet...no flagrant foul...no foul at all.
