Eric Stevenson has something to say about that.

The coaches technical needs to change somehow. The refs clearly missed a foul on Cumberland’s drive and responded by giving Memphis two free throws. Basically “sorry we suck at our job and it may have cost your team two potential huge points, but you got mad and yelled at me, so I’m now going to give the other team two free throws.”

*** ****, I thought Memphis was gonna be a force this year

i think wichtia is athletic and talented just young ..dexter dennis is probably the most athletlic guard in the aac...erik stevenson would be top 10 amoung guards

as far as the tourney, memphis will be all about matchup...they arent organzied, i think an organzied older team with shooters would eat them up..but if it was a matchup of talent or an athletic team, in high flying game i think memphis can win...

wichita to me has the best chance at making the a run, they have no obvious weakness besides youth, i have said this in the houston forum, i think theyll be a final 4 team caliber team next year

I can see why there was no call... He went straight up as he's allowed to do. The fact that Cumberland barreled off his chest doesn't make it a foul. He had position and is allowed to jump vertically

I mean... they were on the verge of running cinci off the floor early in the 2nd half and very clearly the better team before freshman syndrome kicked in and they started throwing passes into the stands.

In part, but I wish the refs would have let the game play out.

I think the foul occurred when Precious swiped down not the body contact.

Consecutive no calls

Just tuned in. What’s with #11 for Memphis wearing a speedo?

Lester Quinones. He's trying to establish a brand for NBA Scouts that see him on the court. We've all seen it players wearing tube socks up to their knees.

If I were his coach I'd tell him to go rehearse for Baywatch in swimsuit bottoms.

Its hard to tell in that video but doesn't look like much of a swipe down. Looked more like a momentum reaction from have Cumberland hit him at full speed

Cincy - a traditional power - is a constant thorn in the Tiger paw. It feels good to finally beat them.

I think if you want to win on the road, you need to play better and score more points than the other team. Not leave to the refs to give you calls to keep it close.

The initial was good. But both defenders arms raked down on the way down didn’t they?

I thought the first one on Keith was more egregious

The free throw line is good for scoring points

It’s been a theme lately.

Something needs to be done about the poor quality of AAC officiating.

It's close enough that a no call is acceptable IMO. Though it's also close enough that as a ref you should expect the other coach to be upset and maybe shouldn't call a tech.

I thought that video had both plays on it.

Here’s the one that shows the consecutive no calls and the reason Brannen lost it

If you can make them. The fouls were evenly called against both teams. 14 on Cincy, 13 on Memphis. Cincy shot 7-12 from the stripe, Memphis 9-12. It was a physical game. It happens sometimes. You either persevere or focus on it.

Looking at the number of fouls each team has at the end of the game is a preposterous way of judging if a game was called accurately.
