He jumped from the left side of the basket and ended up on the right side. But yeah, space of verticality.

This is exactly why you are the perfect KU mascot for this board, Beems. 

My favorite part is the little elbow to the face that T-Rob sneaks in there at the end.

Skinny Benny should make a Space of Verticality parody song to the tune of Cult of Personality.

Apparently I'll have to learn the rules first.

Pressey initiated the contact.  It was a clean block.  You guys can bitch and be as butthurt about it all you want.  The officials made the right no call.  KU won.  Let it go.

No one said the block wasn't clean, but even you have to admit the contact after the block gets a foul call at nearly any other moment in any basketball game.

Not even in the same ballpark as the bullshit charge they called on T-Rob in the K-State game when Gipson did the KC shuffle.  Glad you clowns are finally showing your true colors.

Not if you understand the rules of basketball and understand that basketball is a contact sport.  There is legal contact and illegal contact.  T-Rob made a clean block and went straight up.  Pressey ran into him on the drive and initiated the contact.  The officials saw it that way, KU fans saw it that way, butthurt K-State/Mizzou clowns and Jay Bilas saw it another way.

Of course it's not. One play was an obvious charge on the offensive player (T-Rob). The other was an obvious blocking foul, hack, and shove by the defensive player (T-Rob again).

KC shuffle.

Interesting perspective from a butthurt K-State fan who can only dream of what it's like to win eight straight titles.

You know that almost any time you bring your arm down with that kind of force after a block you get a foul called, especially if the arm makes contact with the shooter. Again, I don't deny the intial block was clean, and I'll even concede verticality, even though that is sketchy. I'll concede a no call on the body contact. But when you bring your arm and contact the shooter in the head with your elbow that is called a foul 99% of the time.

There is no foul in the photo, but I'd have to see a video to validate this.

Section 74. Verticality
Art. 1. Verticality applies to a legal position. The basic components of the principle of verticality are:
a. Legal guarding position must be established and attained initially, and movement thereafter must be legal.
b.    From such position, the defender may rise or jump vertically and occupy the space within his or her vertical plane.
c. The hands and arms of the defender may be raised within his or her vertical plane while the defender is on the playing court or in the air.
d. The defender shall not be penalized for leaving the playing court vertically or having his or her hands and arms extended within the vertical plane.
e.    The offensive player, whether on the playing court or airborne, shall not “clear out” or cause contact that is not incidental.
f.    The defender may not “belly up” or use the lower part of the body or arms to cause contact outside his or her vertical plane.
g.    The player with the ball shall be given no more protection or consideration than the defender in the judging of which, if either, player has violated the principle of verticality.

[WillieWatanabe]

you're right. Should have been an offensive foul. KU got screwed.

[OregonSmock]

Only Hyper Defensive about everything ku PepperJaxBiPolarBeemHawk would have a meltdown in a thread where everyone says its a foul . . . but don't worry about it, enjoy, it was missouri, ku won.

That's what makes having him(s)back so enjoyable.

You can say it's a foul all you want Butthurt State boy.  The officials disagreed.  I disagree as well.  Looks like I'm on the right side of the argument here. 

[bigwillie20]

An assault or battery charge may be the better call here

[SdK]

WTF happened O-hawk?

No one is saying anything back about KU. Just that it was a foul. Not anything about it being bullshit about not being called. Remember the TSC Martinis?

Go have one and calm down.

It would have been called a foul at any other part of the game no matter who was playing. Whether or not it was a foul doesn't matter. The fact that it would have been called is the point.

you're right. Should have been an offensive foul. KU got screwed.

Dixon pushed off a KU defender at the end of overtime, which should have been a foul.  You guys saw that push off crap firsthand in your game in Columbia.  What happened to our TSC lovefest?  This is unbelievable.

1. You are not vertical when you are floating toward the player with the ball.
2. Neither one of his hands were extended within the vertical plane.

You do realize what you just posted hurts your argument as much as it helps it.
