Another Missed Officials Call?

Here's a link with the play towards the end of the game.
Note: After the game and during the interview, Self finishes speaking and as they are interviewing Johnson, you'll hear the crowd start loudly booing.
Apparently, after the game, an ISU fan went after Bill Self and had to be restrained by a cop.

For all of Fran's insistence that 50/50 calls be made at the end of games, we know the downside of that, and the "point of emphasis" from the leagues.

IMHO 50/50 calls should be called the same way all the time and that is a no-call if they are truly 50/50. The charge in question last night looked more like a 80/20 call at a minimum. The official simply blew it. That's all. KU benefited in that instance. Unfortunately, it proved to be a game-changing no-call.

I wonder how Shocker fans would have reacted had Jackie Carmichael made his final shot as he charge to the basket over and through Carl which the officials chose not to call. Maybe there would have been a late whistle had he made the basket. I guess we will never know.

The morale of these stories is that you best not be puttin' yourself in a position where a call or no-call can determine the outcome of a game because at that point it pretty much becomes a crapshoot.
