Hooking Fouls

[jordkap]

I understand trying to call these fouls but to call them as flagrant fouls is asinine. It changed the dynamic of basketball and the instincts that go with it.

agree....yet in the SHU-Kentucky game they let one go which probably would have given KY the win in regulation as they would have shot two foul shots

It’s a stupid rule

Total BS..along with the flagrants everytime a person is touched above the neck. It’s even more ridiculous that they have to review every play that may qualify. This nonsense has to stop.

I wouldn't have an issue with it if it was only called when someone gets pulled to the ground but it really is absurd

I like the hooking calls. An offensive player should not be allowed to hook his off arm around the back of the defender to get around him. A defender should not be able to do it either.

Basketball was always a game of skill and finese. Hooking, grabbing, holding and pushing to gain an advantage just because the Refs don't call it anymore should not be part of this game.

It’s the long ref reviews that are the problem.
