Pathetic MWC Officials

So during the Utah v SDSU basketball game on Saturday afternoon. Utah's headcoach, Jim Boylen, is kneeling on the court, in bounds when SDSU steals the ball and is going on a fastbreak when Boylen reaches out and stops the ball. Keep in mind, he is in bounds. So what do the MWC officials do? They call it out of bounds on SDSU because the guy dribbled the ball into the Utah coach, who was in bounds.

No technical foul, no free throws, not even the ball back. But Utah got rewarded for their coach touching a very live ball. Simply unbelievable.

Here is a video. Let me know what you think.

That is ridiculous. Isn't there video replay? He reached out and hit the ball before it even got to him. Double foul. At least SDSU still beat them...

well... you gotta give the refs credit for running up and down the court. if i was getting paid $20/game, i'd be sitting in a camping chair smoking a cigar.

case, to split up the topic tags, just stick a comma between them.
