OK, so that UCLA shot definitely wasn't going in....but why on god's green earth would you jump up to touch that ball? I mean, come on. That's common sense. Don't even take the chance. From the above the rim view, it looked like it had a chance to draw iron. Because of that, and based on that possibility, it will be deemed the correct call.

Now, I would hope that officials would use more caution when making that kind of call. You HAVE to be sure it has a chance at hitting the basket, imo, and there no view from the floor that indicated as such. Nevertheless, the shot clock/above the hoop camera justifies the call. It sucks that a game ended that way, but what kind of dumbass makes that play in the first place?

The only problem I really had was that the ref who did make the call had no possible angle on that at all. He was on the opposite side of the floor.

He didn't think it was going to make it far enough and he was worried about a potential put back. It wasn't that dumb

Dexter Werner was adopted. His parents are actually Chris Mullin and a tractor.

Because an opening day without an upset just wouldn't feel right.

Good for Dayton
