Wieskamp had already made the put back before any whistle was blown
Paid off refs
- Thread starter vgshwk
- Start date
It was only clear if you know the first thing about the rule, hence your confusion. You clearly don't even know the first thing about the rule because still on its way up has NOTHING TO DO WITH IT! So yes, if you even know the rule in the first place which you just clearly stated incorrectly, it was indisputably a good block.
Now back to blaming the refs because Fran puts the least athletic team in the B1G on the floor year after year!!!
"Did you see Troy Skinner miss that dunk?!?!?! The Refs must've been paid off!"
Like. Clockwork.

It was just tweeted that Illinois went the final 10:02 with ZERO fouls called.
Are you saying the goal tend call was not awful? It was so awful it was overturned. The whistle cost Iowa 2 points. Wish the awful travel was reviewable. How in God’s name is that not called and Frazier hits a 3 point prayer on that no call.
And the refs weren't paid off.
They shouldn't be paid by anyone to be on a court, because they are incompetent

The only person who has implied the refs were paid off is the OP. Keep it going though you’re doing great
If it “CLEARLY” was a clean block why was the whistle blown? If done correctly play continues and Joe got the put-back and the two points we had stolen.
I’m not blaming the refs, but I can still comment on poor calls. Your ad hominem attacks are f’ing pathetic. Explain the rule smart guy
Everybody on the Iowa bench jumped up and called for goaltending too. But ChiDoc knows the rule better than everybody else apparently.... “clearly”
You can say Iowa lost the game, and "not whine", but you didn't watch the game if you really think that the refs didn't influence three important 'swing moments' in this contest.
- The missed travel that even your blind great grandmother would have no problem seeing
- The resulting 3, by Frazier, to beat the shot clock
- And the goaltending review whistle AFTER JoeW got his own rebound and put the ball back in the hoop, taking 2 pts off the board for the Hawks
That's a definite 5-pt swing in ILL's favor, but potentially a 7 or 8 one (if Iowa is given the ball back after the travel that should have been called, and could have made a bucket).

Lol you mean missed the call, right? Cause if you’re talking about the goaltend they...missed that call...until they went and reviewed it. And im in no way saying the refs were paid off, simply that they performed their job very poorly
I am not disagreeing with the reversal I am saying the refs made the wrong call and cost us two points on the putback. So they screwed us twice.
Maybe grow up and realize that in college basketball when you're on the road in B1G games, you're not going to get the calls. It's just the truth. We benefit from it when we're at home. I guess you can waste energy crying about it, but that's not going to change anything. Sorry.
This makes no sense. Called correctly? It was called incorrectly, per the refs review, which stopped the game with Iowa having possession a foot from the hoop. Also costed Iowa a possession arrow. You can’t have it both ways. No matter how you look at it, Iowa lost two points on the shitty officiating.
The classic detroit lions treatment. Had the call been proper in the first place, Iowa scores 2 points. The improper call awarded Iowa 2 points. Correcting the call resulted in nothing.
Welp, there it is. Life on the road in the B1G. We should just accept getting long dicked, because it was a road game.
I learned tonight that goaltending - other than the "in the cylinder" variety - calls are reviewable...... supposedly.
And sure was nice of the officiating crew to let Illinois interfere with Iowa inbounding attempts after made ILL buckets, time after time after time, but only call one warning on them. Way to get tough and mean business, stripes!

We don’t benefit from it like other B1G teams IMO.
Also I think it’s obvious that it SHOULDN’T be like that, no? The officiating should be fair for both the home and road teams. Clearly isn’t the case in the B1G.
Huh. What's this "life on the road" business?? Seems like Iowa gets long dicked in Carver, as well.
It’s the same handful of officials every game. They make their shit calls and then hop on a plane to the next game. Why would they give a rats ass how good or bad they are? Zero accountability will do that.
Yeah, have you been paying attention to college basketball for the last 50 years?
Crying about the refs is just weak. Put yourself in a position to win the game without having to worry about refs.
Maybe if our guys would bring a little defensive intensity and hit the boards, the refs wouldn't matter. Whining about refs is weak. Our interior D is like soft butter. That's a bigger problem than any ref.
To say the refs were Illini stooges who prevented you from winning tonight is even more ignorant. And hilarious, lmao.
Thoughts on ZERO fouls called on Illinois the last 10 minutes of the game? Thoughts on Curbello’s travel at the end of the 1st half?
Well usually you put yourself in a position to win by scoring more points than the other team.
Having to score extra points is handicapping.
Maybe stop having the same 8 guys do every game and do a piss poor job at it might be part of the reason no Big Ten team has won a national championship in over 20 years.
I've been saying for a long time now the inconsistent ability to call a game is why the conference struggles in the tourney after a grueling conference season of this bullshit year in and year out. And outside of Kansas the Big 12 hasn't done shit either despite always being 'arguably the top conference.'. What's the constant here? The same shitty Midwest referees both conferences use for their games.
Yeah i know, that 3 points given to you at the end of the first half made zero impact. That goaltending call had no impact. The 2 terrible foul calls on the POY taking him to the bench both times had no impact. The refs calling 0...ZERO fouls on you in the last 10 minutes had no impact. I dont think the refs were illinois stooges, i think they r just f’n terrible at their job, or were tonight
LMFAO!!! Without the intentionals at the end of the game it was 14 fouls on Illinois and 12 on Iowa, and Iowa was playing with one of the least athletic B1G lineups in recent memory. Illinois was more athletic at basically every single position, and some by huge margins (Dosunmu - McCaffrey; Cockburn-Garza, etc..)
This entire thread is just beyond hilarious.
No video can be used for judge mental calls. Basket interference or goaltending is judge mental. The rule mentions nothing about in the cylinder just states the above. So they should not have reviewed the call.
Refs were pretty good tonight, by and large. My only real frustration was the whiff on the goaltend which cost Joe the put-back. That was a big 2 points coming down the stretch.
Weird. I guess if you want to take the all things being equal stance, albeit false, you have that right.
14 to 12? Who gives a ****. I’m talking about 10 straight minutes to close a game where Illinois wasn’t called for a single foul
Less than 8’ from Paul Szelc’s watchful eyes. How none of the three blew the whistle there needs to be addressed.
The goaltending call really changed the game and what happened after. More bad luck than a horrible call I would say. Hawks bench played well, it was a good effort, and Joe Weiskamp was great tonight.
The veterans didn't come thru late, which is a little dissapointing, but they were in it until the end. CJ out, other guys stepped up, as far as losses go this was our best one.

I yelled at my TV at the blatant travel, but I gotta say, the more I see that replay, the more I think it might be legit. It looks absolutely gratuitous because of the high-stepping along the end line, but I think if he’s not high-stepping, we probably don’t see it as a travel. Basketball has long since made it clear that you can pick up your dribble and take 2 steps, we see that 150 times every game. He was a hair from being down with that third step before he got rid of the ball.
It’s a travel. He passes as he’s about to complete his 4th step, not 3rd
