In 4 NCAA Final appearances, Daton Fix has not scored a SINGLE OFFENSIVE Point! Only escapes and "penalty" points.

That's gotta be bullshit. Are you joking? That's an insane stat.

Another reason this OOB stalling rule sucks is that the refs wait to call stalling now until they go out. In prior years, if some one is backing up and the other guy is shooting, they would throw up the stall as soon as the guy shoots (as they should). Now they wait and if they don’t go out, they avoid a stall call. Fix (and many others) dodged some stall calls that way

Really bad look with all of these people booing Fix. I'm reminded of Teddy Roosevelt's Man in the Arena Speech:

 

Quote

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.

On to 141.  Mendez will wrestle for 7 minutes.  Beau...30 seconds

There's a rumor that Bartlett has been saving a secret technique for this match: he's going to actually circle to the right

I think people get to fired up about the length of the reviews on the casual viewer tunning in.  If they watch any other sport they are used to it by now.. 

it is definitely relative though. A 3 minute review in a 2-3 hour game, vs 3 minute review in a 7 minute match. Eek
