Theo and Sacar

If you're kicked out of a NCAA game, aren't you automatically suspended for the next game?

Whatever, they will be back and they won't be dissed by the Big East establishment again.

Not trolling. Legit question.

No because Mamu is supposed to play today for Seton Hall. But if so I imagine Marquette will probably appeal and 100% get them overturned. When you look back at the tape Theo literally did nothing.

I don't believe that is a rule for a double tech. Maybe a fight.

Sorry, didn't imply trolling, your question is legit and frightening.

No, they addressed this last night already.  No suspension, it wasn't a fight.

Did they say exactly what the reasoning for Theo getting ejected?

I was watching it without volume.

Theo may have extended his arm slightly on the foul, but never thought it was ejection worthy.

He certainly kept his composure  after too.

It was an absurd overreaction ejecting John and Anim both.  John did nothing ejection worthy.   Powell did his best to look like it was a throwdown.

[HutchwasClutch]

To answer your question though, believe they rationalized what John did into a flagrant foul, flagrant 2 or whatever gets a guy tossed.  Sickening and absurd.

[marqfan22]

Made no sense ejecting Theo after spending a good five minutes reviewing it.

[HutchwasClutch]

And Theo did keep his composure as Powell charged after him and instigated the chaos.  But magically, he was allowed to continue in the game. And we all know why, refs didn't have the stones to give Powell another T meaning ejection because they knew doing so would end any prayer SH had of winning.  Then they saved Powell yet again from fouling out when Marcus had him in the air on the three attempt right after Powell re-entered.

Total disgrace of officiating last night.

A flagrant 2 = auto ejection

[HutchwasClutch]

A flagrant 2 = auto ejection

And the refs had to do mental gymnastics to raise what John did to that level.  Awful.

[HutchwasClutch]

What is official explanation for Anim's second T?   I thought I heard official explaining to Johnson/Jackson it was trash talking?

Have to get SH into the big boys tournament, Marquette be damed.  Business is business.

I thought it was bodying up/slight shove/trash talk with whoever from Seton Hall towards the end of the skirmish. Official explanation is that it was a double T with Powell right off the bat for getting in each other's faces or something like that.

Powell did get T'd there. It was his only one, so he stayed in the game. 1st half elbow was a Flagrant 1. Also, I don't think he fouled Markus on the 3 shortly after he came back in. They could have F2'd him right away with the elbow, and they absolutely had it in their discretion to figure out how to get him out after the "fight", but they played it by the letter and kept him in. I agree that they were scared to throw out the best player.

I assumed it was for bodying up against the SH player (who initiated it with a shove, also stepped up, and was not T'd).

IMO they were trying to control an obviously chippy back and forth between Sacar and Powell and between the flagrant 1 for a wind up elbow/T for smiling and the way the dust up played out, completely mishandled it.  They were both doing a lot of trash talking, but Powell was the one who was throwing cheap shots.

B.s. he didn't foul Howard.  He jumped right into Howard as Howard was shooting.  Foul.

Yeah, that's the thing, no one can explain with any certainty what Anim did that earned him a ticket out a postseason game.   Screw job.  Didn't deserve to be t'd at all there.

I think the 2nd T against Sacar was fair. I don't think the first was.
