Garrison incident

[Fox2monk]

Right at the 7:00 mark, the ball does appear to go off of the UL player. One ref signals UK ball. Adams overrules him and gives it to UL. UL then hits a 3.

Adams had 3 distinct plays where he argued with a ref making a call. I’ve never seen that happen once and Bilas even commented on it that he’s never seen it and not sure why he would do that. He’s on the take 100%. He’s a crook and I find it funny we never got it past 10 for a game time 10.5 spread. Even the end they covered the 9.5 ESPN. He controlled every aspect of that game he could and then some.

He stomped on a player. Looking at the replay now

In my opinion at worst he tried kicking the 2 guys to get off his back who were pushing him. I agree it’s not the best look though.

So, based on what you just stated, the foul and nothing more was the appropriate call. If you want to complain about officiating, you can start with Adams' attempt to reassign the foul called by another ref so that a player wouldn't foul out. I have never seen anything like that at any level of basketball.

I wasn’t complaining about officiating, just pointing out the whole scuffle was nothing really, just a bunch of overreactions, mostly by the cardinals. There were certainly some silly calls though. And the “near” error made when Adams tried to reassign the foul was wild.

Yeah, I hope Pope doesn't let that go much further. I'm willing to give Garrison a pass on the "stomp" , but yeah, we aren't Duke. No place for that crap here.

I think the stomp was more about trying to kick the person who was pushing, but only he really knows.

Yeah. Too much going on to say for sure he was intentionally stepping on the guy.

Yes, the UL guy was on the floor and went over the out of bounds line. Should have been or ball. Picky call on Garrison for hitting him in the head swatting for the ball.

One thing I did notice at the game was Louisville set so many illegal and moving screens. And the waterman guy and Hadley walked about 15 times between them

I have noticed a lot of teams are setting illegal/moving screens this year. Clemson and Duke both did it. They would get set, our guy would start to go either high or low around the screen and the screener would throw a hip check on them.

The ref also let us have a do-over on the inbounds play which would have sent many of our fans over the edge if the roles were reversed - we were down by a bit and trying to make a comeback late.

Our players (along with their players) were continually allowed to use their off had to push the defender back as they drove to the basket.

Point is - it goes both ways.

A kick and face scratch, along with a punch and elbow to the head. Hopefully this is a one off, but if it is a pattern it needs to be addressed before he loses his cool in a critical situation.

Those are pretty bitch moves, to be honest. That and the punch/elbow to their PG...that's just some bush league crap.

 

[Eagles_Ball]

Garrison has a little dirty in him. You like it when he’s on your team and hate it when he’s on other teams. It’s tough for fans to view these things objectively, but he intentionally stepped down on the guy on the ground.

He had this play during the game too. Again, fans generally don’t mind because he’s on the good side. If he was a UL player, the tune would absolutely be different.

Count me as one that doesn't like it when he's on my team either. It's one thing to play hard with great effort, it's another to pull cheap shots and bush league crap.

Somebody pulled a gun

Is there video of this occurring? When this happened live, I don't remember the camera being on the inbounds pass. And I don't recall ESPN showing a replay, but just talking about it.

Would actually like to see what happened...

Garrison is going to have to be a Boy Scout the next few games because the word is going to be out.

Dayum...that did make the little kick look intentional

 

[nickhorvathsuxazz]

Mark Pope would win in a cage match of SEC basketball coaches. I believe he could take any one of the others.
Pearl might be second.

If it's wrestling, my money's on Pearl...that sweaty little meatball would be hard to pin

 

[Phil McKracken]

He kicked/stomped the UL player laying on the floor. Looked on purpose to me.
And I have no problems with Garrison. He was starting shit all game and got into their players heads.

Lol, I wrestled in High School and used to have the most trouble with the tall, lanky guys.

I got some Magloire vibes from him Saturday.
