Was it just me or was Michael Carrera acting like a thug in the game. I watched the game again yesterday and twice I saw were he should have had 2 technical fouls on him. One was when he threw the ball in the back of Briscoe he was not falling backwards out of bounds I watched it 4 times. Another time was after Tyler and Lee made the play of the game against Michael Carrera and took a swipe at Lee and Lee pointed at him to the Ref and nothing was done. After watching the game again this was such a bad game by the refs.

Pro, you are right and we actually were called for 1 more foul than South Carolina and they shot 10 more free throws than we did. To top it off Carrera was whistled for only 2 fouls.

He lives at the free throw line. Punk!

I think I said something in the 'in game chat' about him throwing the ball at Briscoe's back. And no he was NOT falling out of bounds. All he would have had to do was dribble the ball up the court. There wasn't even anybody guarding him. Another one was unnecessarily thrown off of one of the Cats, but I don't remember who threw it.

He is a punk, plays dirty and gets away with it. Maybe it has something to do with his minority status, who knows. Martin of South Carolina teaches a lot of unethical basketball and when they play at home they get away with it.

Norm you had a number of great posts on the officiating but your best one was this one.

Going to the bathroom and take a referee during the half. [Big Grin]

When I look at Martin I see the same facial expressions as bobby knight ! He looks like him and acts like him !

Martin is one of the two Hispanic coaches in college basketball and he plays on that minority status when coaching his team.
