This fouling is absolutely insane. It’ll be 17-0 in attempts this half.
Nothing more annoying than when the refs call a foul every single time there’s traffic or a contested shot. Just ridiculous
Whatever the final score, I'm enjoying watching this team
With that like 5 minute stoppage disappointing to not have a play called and instead use our final timeout
Wouldn’t say a lob to Payne would be my first option. And the ball was clearly out on USC. Atrocious reffing.
I rarely fault refs. But they are awful. USC will probably be ranked Monday so not exactly a bad game.
I think it’s obvious we’re good. I think we can get towards the top half of the Big East

We were not getting any calls down our end.
That fantom foul in the closing 30 seconds was just an awful call. Makes you wonder
That and the clear OB on USC on the baseline
Did I miss something...not even close from being a foul.
seened lije usc didnt miss a **** forc10 minutes. abd whether tge refs were bad or not, they hit their fts. kw took too many chances pkaying someone with 2 fouls in 1st half and today we got burned. didbt lije that decision. we showed poise and tied it. but not to be.
This game was 100% decided by the refs. We played well. This team is very fun to watch and they all played their guts out.
we will be a surprise this season.

Agreed. My problem isn’t necessarily the amount of fouls called. But rather how quickly the refs were blowing their whistles. They absolutely wanted to call fouls and weren’t watching closely.
I believe it was drawn up as either / or.
He subbed in his best three point shooters and was going to force USC defenders to help off of their best pick and roll offensive combo.
if Payne was open Clark takes the pass for the two to tie.
If they were too aggressive on any kind of help they were going for the win with a 3 point attempt.
31 points for USC from the line. Doesn’t really feel like a loss considering they basically scored on uncontested free throws much of the second half.
The out of bounds plays when it’s that close are usually always reviewed regardless of challenges available. I don’t get that

Tough, tough way to lose. The soft foul called against Payne (did he even tough him?) and then the wrong out of bounds call. Woof.
But that’s the play that presented itself.
Should he not have thrown the pass to a player who was behind his defender for an easy 2?
The USC player made a great play to deflect the pass, which should have been thrown further towards the basket. Then we get the tough out of bounds call afterwards
If Sha wanted Clark to drive the ball, then he shouldn’t set up the initial pick and roll action that occurred. Because USC jumped it trying to take the ball out of Clark’s hands.
I wouldn’t have had Payne on the floor in that case. Spread the floor with 4 shooters and tell Budd to go do his thing.
Fouls called when we didn’t even touch USC, just playing hard in your face ball. Refs won this game for USC. We were the better team.
Really poorly officiated game and it cost us. Very frustrating.
USC could drive with impunity the whole second half. No need to worry about execution when you go to the free throw line anyhow.
OFF the leg non review in an era where everything is reviewed was an Egregious Error. The game was on National Television. The foul in the corner was puzzling. USC deserved to win, but that was atrocious officiating with so many bailouts.
The Clarke 3rd foul, his fault changed the way SHU played defense almost the rest of the game. Hopefully, that loss wont come back to haunt us. Aside from that, very proud of the team. Finally, we are back to high IQ basketball players instead of nonsensical guys still learning game experiments.

Exactly. That’s why Sha needed to get Clark out when he picked up his second foul. bad job by Sha.
Yes, because if Payne got fouled there wasn't a chance he was going to hit both. Short of an uncontested dunk he should not see the ball.
