2nd half officating has really spiked hometown! la salle 4 foul shots loyola 24 foul shots la salle took one less three than loyola and went to the basket every bit as much as them. la salle has one guy foul out and three end up with 4 fouls. loyola gets called for 13 fouls the entire game. a10 refs are a joke Great point. Add that to the fact Loyola plays much more physical basketball and you wonder what hell these refs see. |

Today was a tough loss to a good Loyola-Chicago team. Turnovers and rebounds was our achilles heel in the loss today. Brickus(11 points and 6 rebounds) and Brantley(10 points and 6 rebounds) had an off night today. We both can’t have Brickus and Brantley having off night for us to be successful. This is the second year in a row losing to Loyola-Chicago in our last regular season game. Our second season start on Tuesday against GW in the PI game. We just have to survive and advance on Tuesday and every game we play in the A10 tournament. Let go baby.

Toward the end of the game, I recall one of the hometown announcers commenting about the foul disparity wondering out loud how a team who has guards that drive to the basket so much like La Salle can see so few fouls called? |

This only gets fixed if the team hurt by the bias (LaSalle) files a complaint with the league (supported by video documentation) on the issue. I don't know if they have. If they don't, then they deserve it. The 24 to 4 stat is outrageous.

I didn’t think the officiating was great yesterday but it’s worth noting La Salle is 350th in country in Free Throw Rate. Both personnel and style dictate La Salle not getting to the line significantly more than officiating disparity. There should be no such thought about keeping fouls even. La Salle is weak inside so teams are going to attack the rim, La Salle guards are also very small so both these things are going to work against La Salle drawing and conceding free throws.

Almost like La Salle shouldn't be attacking the rim/lane and should be doing something else.

Our guards do not drive to the basket as much as other teams.
That is a factor for sure but the disparity sometimes can’t be explained.

La Salle is weak inside so teams are going to attack the rim, La Salle guards are also very small so both these things are going to work against La Salle drawing and conceding free throws. before yesterday, la salle averaged 15.8 free throws per game. before yesterday, their opponents averaged 18.8 free throws per game so on average, we go to the line 3 times less per game than our opponents. yesterday, we went 20 times less. yes, personnel and style dictated what happened yesterday. i did not have a problem with loyola taking 24 foul shots. but their personnel and style uses aggressive hand checking, clutching and grabbing of jerseys. most of the fouls not called on them were between halfcourt and 15 feet from the basket. on offense, adelekun elbowed and hooked his way to the basket multiple times and never got called once for an offensive foul even though our defenders stayed vertical. i wasn't expecting a win yesterday, but i'm sorry, loyola got away with murder. i give our guys credit for making it competitive. |

When we get to 10 feet it is usually kicked out |

When we get to 10 feet it is usually kicked out It's not. We take a ton of bad mid range shots. And our 6-foot-0 guards can't get to the rim untouched because they're short. |

Sometimes you engage in some Twilight Zone stuff. |

I'm disagreeing with you saying they kick out the 10 footers. They don't, they usually shoot contested shots from there. Sorry that it wasn't clear.

I never said they kick out to shoot mid range shots. We get open 3 looks often at times when we kick it out. If we didn’t we wouldn’t have won 15 games. You said yourself shoot more 3’s. Why shoot more 3’s if we don’t get get looks from 3. That is the result of when we penetrate the ball. I am saying we don’t take it to the rim. |

Think we’re talking past each other so that’s enough
