The Dag Bag – The blown over-and-back call

March 24, 2011 Charles Kang

Yes, the official blew the call, but so did Scoop Jardine. When the pass sailed wide, Jardine tried to toe the halfcourt line, and you only do that if you think you’re about to be called for over-and-back. I can’t put myself in the place of an official, but I would think that how Scoop reacted when the play happened would only draw the official’s attention to it. It was also a bad pass from Dion. It’s easy to put the blame on the officials, but without Dion and Scoop’s mistakes, it never becomes a factor. The Orange can’t control the officials, but they can control what they do on the court.

Week in review (3/20): Tracing the origins of 3-goggles

The 3-goggles have been ubiquitous throughout the beginning of the NCAA tournament, as players across the country are holding an OK sign up to their eyes and looking through the circle created by the thumb and index finger after a successful 3-point shot.

Orange will face Marquette (again)

March 20, 2011 Charles Kang

The last (and only) time Syracuse was in this position, the year was 1987 and Sherman Douglas was throwing alley-oops to Rony Seikaly. That year, the Orangemen advanced to the national title game to play the Indiana Hoosiers. But before SU even got there, it defeated Providence for the third time that season in the national semifinals game. That is to say, Syracuse met another Big East foe in the NCAA tournament.
