jimmykc Posted October 19, 2016 Report Posted October 19, 2016 Great. Another way to kill the flow of the game. Quote
Huskerpapa Posted October 19, 2016 Report Posted October 19, 2016 We can now add five minutes to the length of the game. Here is my thing, even if they look at video, it is still hard to call. Quote
atskooc Posted October 19, 2016 Report Posted October 19, 2016 Great. Another way to kill the flow of the game. That was my first thought as well. Quote
uneblinstu Posted October 19, 2016 Report Posted October 19, 2016 Doesn't the NBA do this as well? Quote

uneblinstu Posted October 19, 2016 Report Posted October 19, 2016 Doesn't the NBA do this as well? Yes. I thought so. I don't watch a ton of the NBA, but I've never really noticed it significantly getting in the way of the game flow too much. I don't really think it will happen that often. Quote

King James Posted October 19, 2016 Report Posted October 19, 2016 We can now add five minutes to the length of the game. Here is my thing, even if they look at video, it is still hard to call. Five minutes? Sheesh, I could see a whole lot more time than that! It seems to take at least five minutes every time they go to the replays.... AuroranHusker 1 Quote
jimmykc Posted October 20, 2016 Report Posted October 20, 2016 I suppose how much it interferes with the game flow depends on how it is implemented. Does a coach throw a red flag? Do the number of boos from the crowd cause a replay? Do the refs have to decide among themselves that they have no clue as to the right call? Is there a fourth official who stops play if he feels it is a crappy call? Does there have to be "indisputable" evidence? Is it automatic with every block/charge play? So many questions. Quote

meerkat68901 Posted October 20, 2016 Report Posted October 20, 2016 I believe the only part that they can review is whether or not the defender is in the restricted area, so the "judgment call" as to timing, legal guarding position, etc. will still be there. It will certainly add a little time, but I think some people are under the impression that all block/charges are going to get looked at, which isn't the case. Quote
