Kentucky will start the game by shooting two free throws. Not sure what NCAA rule is on if there is a jump ball next or it Kentucky just gets the ball and the possession arrow points to KSU, though.

I've already explained this, you've seen dunks in warm ups before the officials get on the court. You've seen guys touch the rim while the officials are on the court, Wes & Marcus did it right before Vulture got T'ed. You've never, in a real game, seen a player grasp the rim and pull down on it in front of officials in warm up.

How is that so many people were clueless about this rule? MIR's interpretation of the rule is what I always knew to be as well.

For pregame:
No refs=dunk.
Refs=no dunk.

Yeah, I'm surprised many didn't know about the rule.

Vulture obviously still thought it was before the regular 20 minute warm up (it occurred inside the first minute) when the officials come onto the floor. It was an unfortunate mistake but really I'm not upset an anyone including Vulture or the officials that called it.

Post by: kst8cat on March 22, 2014, 12:22:03 PM
Normally players get to come on the court about an hour before tipoff and that is when you see most of the dunking and goofing around before the normal warm-up routine.  However since there was a game played on the same court right before that, the warm-up time was cut in half to about 30 minutes.  So I'm sure it would be easy to forget about that rule when you just follow your normal routine before every game all season long and then suddenly you play a game with half as much warm-up time.

Exactly, so why did you bring up Shane in the first place?  I don't think anybody would have been dumping on Shane if he had done it.  I don't understand why you want to open up a can of whoop-ass all over Vulture.  It wasn't done on purpose, was the first time it has happened, and I forgive him for it.  It cost us one freaking point.  Bid deal.

It wasn't done on purpose as in I don't believe he knew the refs had taken the court because the normal warm-up time had been dramatically shortened from a regular game.  You did make your observation which is fine, but you went on to say this:

He's saying that our fan base would treat a black player differently had they done it, which is true.

Yeah right.  We are just a big-time racist fan base aren't we?  I don't believe that to be true at all.  Complete B.S.

meister, the reason I was diplomatic about my point is that people can't handle the nuanced conversation as evidenced by this post. I didn't call anyone or any group of people racist but most like kst8cat can't understand the difference.

I did not say you did MIR.  Meister is the one who put words into your mouth and my response was entirely to him when he said "which is true".  You have yet to explain why you think people would treat Southwell differently, so I am open to whatever your answer is.

Because Shane is black, not from Kansas, and not a walk on. The rules are different for white people, in state players, and walk ons. Let's change Shane to Omari. One of the defenses of Vulture is that he's smart. Omari Lawrence is a college graduate, has any fan on any message board anywhere ever called Omari smart? How many have called him stupid?

If Shane had been the dunk culprit MIR would have started a thread about how the refs are racist, and everyone else would have reacted the same.

Calling this T was just a precursor for how hard we were going to get rough ridin' by the refs last night. I would bet there were over a 1000 dunks yesterday when the refs "we're on the floor" and over 100000000 this season.  This rule has been enforced exactly once, ever. Rohlader should go home and beat his wife with a stick not wider than his thumb, really push his luck.

I did not say you did MIR.  Meister is the one who put words into your mouth and my response was entirely to him when he said "which is true".  You have yet to explain why you think people would treat Southwell differently, so I am open to whatever your answer is.

Because Shane is black, not from Kansas, and not a walk on. The rules are different for white people, in state players, and walk ons. Let's change Shane to Omari. One of the defenses of Vulture is that he's smart. Omari Lawrence is a college graduate, has any fan on any message board anywhere ever called Omari smart? How many have called him stupid?

Let me ask you this.  If Shane were the culprit in dunking before the game, would you still have posted this (minus the walk-on part)?

"rough ridin' moron jackass walkon, peace of crap. what a goddamned moron"

You seem to be saying that would be the natural reaction of many people and perfectly justifiable.  But since Vulture enjoys some sort of "protected status" in people's minds because he is a white walk-on from the state of Kansas, we look the other way and don't criticize him for screwing up.  But just to clarify, who exactly are we talking about here?  When you wrote "I can't imagine how many dumb assess, idiots, and morons I would have read if Shane did this", it sounds like a criticism of just goEMAW posters in this thread who did not share your reaction about the dunk.  But I also get the sense that you may be trying to make a larger point about how your typical KSU fan looks at players as a whole. 

As far as the dunk itself, I still don't think anyone would have reacted differently had it been Shane.  I mean the vast majority of fans (myself included) had no idea that was even a rule to begin with.  As far as typical KSU fans go in how they view players, I don't think race makes the slightest bit of difference.  We all want the best players in every way possible to attend and represent our school.  I don't think race factors into that even the slightest bit.  People may cheer a little more for a Kansas kid now and then because people have state pride and enjoy knowing that our small state is capable of producing Division 1 level athletes, and we want to show that we appreciate them staying in the state to play for our school.  When you have elite in-state talent like a Terrence Newman or Darren Sproles, the love-fest just goes off the charts.  Same with guys like Wayne Simien or Perry Ellis at KU.  I think everyone knows you can't be a successful Kansas team without pulling a lot of talent from out of state, but I don't see why anyone would have a problem with fans rooting or cheering for Kansas players to do well.  I mean it may be a bias of sorts, but so what?  As far as walk-ons, most people view them as the ultimate underdog because we seldom get to them play.  So yeah you may hear extra loud cheering when one of them makes a 3-pointer or something, but again so what?  It's not like fans actually love or appreciate them more than the starters.  If all the walk-ons were starters we would be losing every single game and everyone knows that.

I don't follow message board discussion closely all the time, especially on other sites, but I take it you don't like that people in the past have referred to Vulture as smart.  I didn't know much at all about Vulture before Friday night, but a quick look at his bio states that he "was named to both the Fall 2012 and Spring 2013 Big 12 Commissioner's Honor Roll, which included a 4.0 GPA in the fall".  So based on that, why on earth would anybody have a problem with a message board poster referring to the guy as smart?  I guess I don't get it.  Are there all kinds of people out there calling Omari stupid or something?

Mike Decourcey(sp??) was on 810 this morning and he said that is exactly the reason the rule was put in place.

It's not like teams are going to have dunk contests in pre-game. It's a dumb rough ridin' rule. Period.

10. Vulture already has the tournament’s Most Outstanding Player award locked up.

If you missed it, Vulture is a Kansas State walk-on who received a technical for dunking in warm-ups before his team’s game against Kentucky. History will look back on this as the coolest trillion ever recorded. And yes, it’s still technically a trillion since he had one technical foul and no other stats, including minutes played. This means he very well could be the only person in the world to dunk and get a trillion in the same game. If I were Vulture, I would never stop reminding people of this glorious achievement.

Great!


Anyway, I would be surprised if the rule went away. There isn't a clamoring to let players dunk during warm-ups and athletic directors don't want to risk having to replace the rims in pregame. The rule has been around for 40 years, no need to change a rule that so infrequently gets violated.

So you can dunk the eff out of the ball twenty minutes and 1 second before tipoff, but not 19 minutes and 59 seconds before, because at 20 minutes the rim all of the sudden becomes susceptible to breaking and at that point in time it's too late to timely get a new one installed?

MIR, your blinding hatred of white people, Butch Redledder in this case, has caused you to take an unbelievably irrational and ignorant position regarding this archaic and seldom enforced rule from the pre-breakaway-rim era of basketball, back when pubic hair spewed from the confines of polyester thigh high form fitting shorts.



It's a stupid rough ridin' rule that is never enforced despite being broken 100 times per half. It's what jaywalking is, if jaywalking were enforced 1/100th of its current enforcement rate.  Shut The eff Up

The term "Peckerwood," an inversion of "Woodpecker," is used as a pejorative term. This word was coined in the 19th century by Southern blacks to describe poor whites. They considered them loud and troublesome like the bird, and often with red hair like the woodpecker's head plumes

Stan Weber discussed this in detail with Nate and Steven on the Border Patrol this morning.  Pretty interesting.  This is a link to the podcast in case you missed it.  Also discusses the oscar to Marquette rumors later in the interview.

should make this our thing. like, we get a guy to go up and just tomahawk slam it right before pregame ends every game and give the other team a 2 pt lead. its a lot like a coach getting a T to fire his guys up, except were trying to fire up the crowd and our players at the same time.

Has it been mentioned how rough ridin' stupid this rule is?

What is the intent of the rule? How does it improve or protect the game?
I've always assumed it was to prevent damage to the goal close to game time.


Mike Decourcey(sp??) was on 810 this morning and he said that is exactly the reason the rule was put in place. Back when basketball goals were made out of wood and peachbaskets they didn't want someone to damage or break the goal which would obviously delay the game.  He says now with breakaway rims it's nearly impossible to break a backboard these days and that technology has passed that rule by.

Decourcey as usual is an idiot. I've seen a high schooler break a backboard; lets see what happens when we see guys 6'7" 255 with 6 percent body fat dunking as hard as they can undefended every night.
not to nitpick here (i dont care about this dumb rough ridin' rule one way or the other) but im guessing most high school backboards arent as advanced as say a d-1 college or arena would have. carry on

mir, your best comparison would be victor ojelay.  engineering, walk-on, from kansas, black.  he even has a last name that i don't know how to spell, just like rhodeler

What if Marcus Foster was a white guy walk on from Seneca? Fans would love him so much!What if oscar was black?  Everyone would say he has anemia instead of aspergers.

most are though

Not very interestingly enough I ordered two basketball goals a couple of months ago also not very interestingly enough this is the second time I've had to do this. Anyway I could get into some real dorkiness about plexiglass and perforated polycarbonate but the bottom line is that the quality of the rim and boards don't vary much. Even if you can't be convinced that the quality isn't much different, you can certainly recognize the difference in strength from a high schooler and a college basketball player with the benefit of a S & C program.

Agreed, Wally Judge and Jam Sam used to routinely come out early and try to rip the rough ridin' rim off before warmups. I don't recall there ever being a problem with the goal after they were done with it.

Part of the reason my new years resolution (for 3 years now) was to slam dunk a basketball was to live out the fantasy of getting called down onto the court at half time to do some silly game where I shoot for chipotle burritos or something and throw down an immense tomahawk chop monster jam and the cat fans just go wild and rush the court and I get one free burrito a week for a year.


would that be a technical?

one time in high school we had an ice storm and the backboard in my driveway had a sheet of ice on it. i slowly lowered it down to 8 feet and got like a 5 step running start into a windmill slamma jamma. all the ice fell down on me and my bro eric got it on camera.

ill see if i can dig up that video. its pretty similar to the b-ro one in this thread.
