For what it's worth Reggie says it was clean block.
For what it's worth, replays showed that the Miami player got absolutely no part of the ball on that play. Props to Reggie for being the diplomat though.
The old saying of "games are never lost on a single play" is very true here. After having that 60-55 lead, they went comatose. They stopped moving the ball and everyone became a statue on the perimeter. Hard to score and win basketball games like that. The fact that the defense (what little of it there was) became an outright bull/matador impersonation in the last few minutes didn't help matters either.
This is another game that they'll file under the "ugh" category with Harvard and Yale if they don't make the tournament...
Losing to Miami on the road isn't as bad as those other losses. We partly screwed ourselves and partly got screwed by the refs. This is one we really needed but makes the game on Wed. night all the more important.
It's not a bad loss, but when it comes to making the tournament, this is a game they probably should have won. It's just another difficult game that goes in the L column was more my point.
