  • looked like all ball on the next one. Maybe a little arm but mostly ball when they show the replay

  • I thought the ball was at a peak and not coming down and was going straight for the back board.

  • NC should have been tagged for goal tending, plus out of bounds, too. Hansborough should have been tagged for that foul as well. North Carolina is just as bad as Duke; these two teams think they're hot stuff, and they also get away with a bunch of crap, too. Plus, they think they ARE ENTITLED to every call. These refs were awful in this game; people want a "level" called game, none of this crap that we saw here. I don't blame Miami's coach for being mad; he had every right to get mad over this.

  • nothing bad about miami OR UNC all blame goes to refs UNC AND Miami were and are not dirty just refs laziness

  • denny clemente haha

  • goal tending one of the worst rules in basketball

  • Good block by hansbrough.

  • Look at hansbrough after he swats the guys arm. He knows he fouled him... obviously didn't matter in the end, but refs still gotta stay on top of it, even in a blow out...

  • Comment removed

  • Sure looks like the goaltending call was the correct call. The ball reaches it's highest point right when he blocks it. That's not a goaltend. The ball has to be on it's way down for it to be a goaltend. Either way, refs aren't perfect it's not an easy job.

  • ref: at the start be be ~~( whistle blowed) the player looks too ugly, he gets a tech foul ( that is like WTH man)

  • i ref basketball games... its not an easy job... its easy to make calls when your watching on t.v. or in stands... but when its your responsibility it is a lot tougher... most plays can go either way.

  • We are already up by 20 or so...wasn't like the refs were cooking it for UNC. The game is over, as the refs said, so who cares? Announcers just want to manufacture drama to keep it interesting.

  • u sound as dum ass u look

  • The announcers are right bout the out of bounds play but not correct in saying it was a goaltend because it had a chance to go in.If the ball is on its downward path then its a goaltend, f its still going up then its a block.Having a chance to go in is irrelevant.Since we dont play by FIBA rules in HS,College & the NBA the hand IS considered part of the ball when u r holding it. So making contact with the hand is NOT a foul.Both were close and at live speed it is not easy.Go ref a game sometime.

  • the goaltending and foul are very clear both live, and replay. when a players arms are swiped like that, its clearly a foul. one more thing that is annoying about college basketball...

  • Respectfully I disagree especially with the no call on the block. When they replay it from overhead Hansbrough has the ball and just pulls it against the shooter arms. The goaltending is another story and that type of goaltending trying to determine as the trail official who is above the 3 point line to try and tell if its going doen at live speed is not easy and having been in that situation I can say that from experience.

  • It is relevant if the balls has a chance to go in. You say that "having a chance to go in is irrelevant" however, this must be false. If this were true then if a player shot an airball and a defender touched it at any point before it touched the ground then it would be an goaltend, by your definition.

  • @chitownref yeah, the goaltending call is tough, but come on. give the benefit of the doubt to the team that's getting crushed...

  • Typical ACC refs.

  • The first calls were right (the ones announced by the broadcasters). But the last block shot could've gone either way. I'm not too familiar with NCAA rules, so if anyone has a better insight on the rules please reply...

    In FIBA rules that would've gone either way too cause of these reasons: 1) He got the ball first and the hand can be considered part of the ball (why it wasn't a foul). 2) The man lowered his hands and hit the offensive player (why it was a foul).Either way, they lost.

  • FIBA rules don't say the hand can be considered part of the ball. However, the illegal contact was so minimal that it didn't place the shooter at a disadvantage (especially since he got legally "checked" or "blocked" as you say before so no chance of scoring by that point)?

  • I agree. Well said. But can you refrase your question? I'm afraid I don't understand it. :(

  • No problem, the question was more like "Do you agree that he had no chance of scoring at the time of illegal contact" which you answered :)

  • This is possibly the worst officiating job I 've ever seen. Does anyone else realize Brandan Wright either fouls or goaltends when he gets a "block."

  • for a person to be a NC fan, u have to feel like the biggest pussy right now - sport is fake - this reminds me of jerome bettis - I say tails overtime coin toss.

  • unc suks

  • you think this is bad Try looking at DUKE

  • fuck UNC

  • fuck whatever team you root for

  • Yeah, I am sure that Miami would have won that game down 20. And I am sure that I can cherry pick some calls that went Miami's way only I don't waste my time whining about the refs.

  • ok miami probably wouldn't have come back, but crazier things have happend. Refs get on there knees for UNC and it's not fair

  • I agree. He's getting his ass handed to him. Stop crying and get better player.

  • Missed the out of bounds call but the block was all ball. Getting your ass handed to you will make any coach mad. Recruit better players and maybe you'll get some calls.

  • Comment removed

  • It is safe to say that EVERY game UNC has won in the last 20 or so years has undoubtedly been won thanks to biased, unfair, and frankly ridiculous officiating. If there is ANY justice in this world, they should be stripped of all of their wins and titles during that period. It is just pathetic that nothing is done about it. What is this world coming to?

  • wow, this is pretty bad. gotta feel for frank haith, just trying to earn some respect as a new coach in a revamped program, must be pretty hard when you get shafted like this.

  • fucking Karl Hess. he's terrible. Im a die hard carolina fan, and those were some pretty awful no-calls. hes an awful ref

  • I don't understand what the problem is. This seems pretty regular at the RBC center.

  • Who as in charge of the call? None other than Hess who sucks as an official and has continued to suck as an official since I can remember. Everytime I've seen games that he has officiated he has made terrible calls.

  • CLEAN BLOCK>... Refs dont get eveything right..... did you see the game at Miami on 2/15/09. The refs called so many for Miami, such as fouls and no fouls called when UNC was getting clobbered.

  • show me proof and I'll believe it

  • i just asked u if you saw it. i didnt say i was going to show u. how dumb are u.??? do you play basketball for Clemson or something>>>????

  • Again, Miami lost by 41. The refs aren't the reason you lose by 41.

  • Oh of course not, and no one is saying that. But still, a team could be losing by 100 and it doesn't matter... the integrity of the game is at stake. Missing easy calls like these is inexcusable.

  • @OrangeCane

    Integrity of the game my ass. The GT at the beginning might have been wrong, but that is always a tough call. If you are worried about any call on the transition, what about the forearm the Miami player put into Hansbourgh? If anything you could make a real easy case that was a foul first. And the block by Hansbourgh was very legit. Stop crying about a game you get blown out by 40. Sorry, those two points did not make the difference.

  • @Natorious80 Again, who gives a flyin duck about UNC...what year was this? Exactly...

    And yes Miami lost by 41, but that is why they have officals- to make calls! I don't care if a team lost by 100, play fair, make the calls! Oh wait, some dude already said that...well give that guy another thumbs up! Because I was thinking the same thing!

  • @Natorious80 2 of the 41 came from a player who was out of bounce but since this is ur way of seeing sport it will be known that its fake. entertainment only.  whats a make up call. the term in not in the rule book - but ass bitch dam n shit is in the dictionary. cant use it in a public place. waste away ur life as u please. dumass

  • OK the out of bounds call was missed and the goaltending was close and prolly should have been called but the block was not so easy, he didnt get him with the body nor did it look like he hit him on the arm more like he came across his hand after he cleared the ball which is NOT a foul as your HAND is apart of the ball so just because the guys body turned doesnt mean S@#T.

  • First of all I am a ref and any of you guys who thinks it's easy put on the stripes and get out there!

  • i agree it is hard...but the dude was out of bounds when the ball was bounced off him, right infront of the ref

  • Block was NOT clean! Easily a foul. He hits him hard enough to change his body direction, that is clearly a foul! If he calls it out of bounds, it prevents an easy two points for UNC. They may have scored on the next possession, but Miami may have made a defensive stop aswell. Oh and EASY goaltending call! Does is matter? So, you are saying that since UNC is up by 18 or so, then the refs should just stop making calls? Yea, lets just play street ball, no out of bounds, and lets walk all the time.

  • Hey if you are a unc fan Subscribe to me,im going to start a blog after every carolina game i would really love it if you Subscribe to me and watch it.

  • the ACC's ref's are terrible

  • agreed, 2 very bad calls, but truthfully, did it really matter, unc was up 18 before it all started

  • You could have had 3 Miami alums as the refs...wouldn't have mattered. Who cares. lol

  • UNC is good, but that was horrible

  • Goal tend...OK +2 points to UM

    Out of bounds...It still would have been UNC's ball...which doesnt mean they were giving UNC the advantage, just a missed call that worked in UNCs favor

    Hansbroughs block was a clean one, Got all ball...

    So in reality it was 1 bad goaltend call that didn't impact the game...big deal

    Would Mike Patrick have commented on the refs durring a Dook game...cause I have seen more balanced officiating???

  • Hansbrough's play was close enough where it should have been called. Game's a blowout anyways, and they are going to give NC that weak of an And 1 call, why not make a call where the UM player goes to the floor after contact? Especially when it's right in front of the UM bench. It's called game management.

  • UNC is good ball club; but way to cocky

  • we get so many bad calls against us we are owed a few now and then. and by the way, fuck Billy Packer (though he's not on THIS telecast).

  • unc is horrible!!!!!! there football sucks to!!

  • really cause last time i checked they were 7-3

  • MIAMI BLOWS...This game was over a long time ago stop bitchin about 2 clean blocks and a bad call.

  • wow i like unc but WTF

  • 90% of UNC's wins come from that

  • Stop complaining because UNC is the best team in college right now. If you want to pick out a team that gets all of the calls look for UCLA

  • Best team in college...?

    We'll see what happens come next season.

  • Fair enough

  • UNC sucks

  • Well i guess thats why they went 36-3 but i guess that shows how much you know about college basketball

  • yea u dont know shit u can suck balls cause unc is the most dickhead team ever known to man tyler hansborough can go get his nose broke again...GO DUKE

  • Sike thats why Duke always gets owned on senior night by unc come on they can hardly beat rhode island

  • coolkid your a prick!! know your place in the food chain you little dook fag lol

  • I thought the refs got suspended from this game for those calls.

  • Didn't UNC win this game 105-64? How can you blame a 41 point loss on the zebras?

  • I've specifically said in these comments that no one is blaming the loss on the refs... Miami got destroyed in this game on their own. But that still doesn't excuse some horrible and blatantly-missed calls that ACC refs tend to make over and over and over again throughout the years.

  • No goaltending (ball was not conclusively on its way down yet), and no foul. The out of bounds was clearly missed, though.

  • typical

  • doesnt mater if first wasnt goin in, you cant block if its on the way down, middle call, always happens with unc,they always need the ball, last one looks like all ball, but he got some of is hands/wrist. typical UNC refs..

  • Yes...it does matter if it was going in or not. It states so specifically in the rule book.

  • the ball wouldn't have gone in on the first one bottom corner of the square, the out of bounds was bad and the last one was all ball.

  • duke and the tarheels get all the calls.

    ALL of them.

  • dont forget about UCLA, beckhamfreak. and duke gets more calls. did u see the duke-carolina game! hansbrough shot 0 free throws. it was a joke

  • gotcha. its sad its that way but oh well.

  • that last one wasnt even close. it was all ball. the guy fell because he was the holding the ball so tightly. he wanted to dunk it.

  • a few crappy calls but look at the scoreboard...

  • wow. Horrible refs. It seems like the ncaa could get some more decent refs. geese

  • It's not the refs, it's the team.

  • Im a UNC fan, and i agree, they should have called some of that stuff, i mean, are they blind?

  • If you're a UNC fan, you shouldn't be complaining, you get every call. I don't know of any college basketball fan that dosen't agree.

  • ah i think duke may get more, but yes.

  • yeah duke definatly gets more

  • I'll agree with that. But UNC and Duke get the most in the country.

  • yeah, they do get a lot, especially in this game

  • yeah, UNC does get alot of calls, mostly on hansbrough though. The guys a beast... I think everyones jealous because he averages a double-double.... haha

  • always on unc side never on the U side sad

  • I hate refs. I always have and always will. I can't stand them. Anything anyone of you type will not change my mind so don't make me read your crap. I hate refs. They all can kiss my ass.

  • This is the same ref crew that did the Vanderbilt vs. UT-Martin game. I taped it, and there were 22 walks they should have called. These guys have always been terrible.

  • Man Tar Heels freaking rule

  • unc sucks balls

    U all the way

  • U suck balls man LoL miami needs to stick with football. UNC rules!!!!!!!!!

  • LOLOLOL it's so funny when morons think they know so much about basketball, always blame the refs eh?

    How about you blame your shitty fucking team for sucking, ever thought that could be the problem? Douchebag

  • I don't think anyone is saying that the refs cost us the game... we were BAD last year and playing a horrible game. There's no blame on them for losing us the game -- we did quite a good job of that on our own, lol. That still doesn't excuse bad calls by the refs.

  • The canes have always sucked in basketball so why all the bickering?

  • We'll see how things go with UNC coming off of a loss tomorrow night at Miami. Miami just lost one too. Both teams should be fired up. I'm a UNC fan but I think it will be another close one.

  • It doesn't matter is a team sucks or not, the refs should make the calls right, not for the better team. that is the problem with sports today, veterans get calls but rookies have to move their way up. top programs get calls but the lower ones don't get those cause they're not as well known. give me a break, a foul is a foul, out of bounds is out, a rule is a rule, no matter who you are. botton line

  • it was easy to tell that tyler got all ball on the close up replay!

  • the out of bounds was a terrible call i will agree with that, but the 2 blocks were clean

  • seriously, the game was a blowout, get over it...

    i see two bad calls, one going against each team.

  • Tylers block was very clean...B.Wright was close to a goaltend but if the ball is still goin up and it looks like it was then it was clean...and he did not step on the line was a great play...but other than that they are getting beat by 22 so who cares...lol...just another UNC victim!

  • Goaltending - Questionable

    Out of bounds - Miami player was in the air

    Tyler's block - CLEAN!!!

    Just because the coach gets thrown out for arguing, doesn't mean that the call's, or lack there of are bad. I'm sure he was at the point where he would try anything to get his players fired up. To bad it didn't work.

  • "Out of bounds - Miami player was in the air"

    He was in the air after taking two steps out of bounds already. The goaltending was obvious, while Tyler's block was questionable... it's hard to tell if he got all ball or part of the hand. I'm sure Coach Haith was trying to get his team fired up, but there was also quite a bit of frustration with the refs there too.

  • rcaddell23 bias fan?? - obvious

    the goaltending obvious, and the miami player was out of bounds before he jumped meaning he was still out of bounds when the ball hit him.

  • I was at that game. Carolina put a hundred on em' and beat them buy 40. So that one goal tend call would not have changed the game.

  • doesnt matter miami was down by 20 they wouldnt have caught up anyway, and the block by hansbro was a clean block

  • Miami fans, I know you are all new to the ACC and all but you need to know 2 things: 1. UNC gets zebra love. 2. Duke gets zebra love. All one has to do as look at the stats on who shoots the most free throws every year. For the past 20 or so years, its UNC or Duke every season. And Hansbrough can play like a bull in a china cabinet, but when is the last time you've ever seen him foul out?

  • what year did maim have 5seed beat maryland that good but every beat clemson maim cant beat Gatech/UNC/WF/NCS/BC/DUKE you know good team in ACC

  • always suck name last time maim made to march only made acc tournament 1 time

  • Fact checking is a great thing, you know... no one gets excluded from the ACC Tourney, so we've made it 3 times in 3 years. We've beaten Maryland and Clemson in the ACC tourney the past two years. We made the NIT 2 of the last 3 years and actually went pretty far 2 years ago. We haven't made the NCAA Tourney in several years, but we've been as high as a number 5 seed and have made it to the Sweet 16 before. Are we a marquee program? No way... but that's hardly "always sucking."

  • get over it maim never hade good team always last in acc maim always suck at basketball

  • We finished middle of the pack our first two years in the ACC, then had an injury-decimated season last year. That's hardly "always sucking" at basketball. Besides, what does that have to do with bad calls?

  • Leave it to a Miami to whine about the refs. Its a part of the game, so get over it. The refs are human, so they are going to mess up.

  • Sure, they're going to make mistakes... but we're talking about blatant calls... just look at any Duke basketball game -- ACC refs are the worst.

  • unc own maim in football this year wow

  • i love how the year after we beat dook both times they go to north carolina videos to talk bs..grow up...u lost to a team most people didnt know existed

  • I dont know about the goaltending, but that second one was definitely out. Then again, you look at the score, its not like it really mattered, UM sucks at basketball, and thats what happens. Good players get good calls, thats not right, but the truth.

  • But yes...these were TERRIBLE calls. As a Tar Heel fan, I agree with you. I just don't think it's bias as much as it is the refs not doing their damn jobs.

  • I was at this game and I remember Miami calling its timeouts right after the tv timeouts to rest players and break up the continuity of the game. This resulted in a much longer than average game. In my opinion, I think the refs just got lazy.

    ACC officiating is generally poor b/c referees in our league have trouble disassociating themselves so they can make the right call at the right time. Every ACC team has had to deal with poor officiating at times.

  • i expect nothing less from the tar heels every season

  • i been a ucla fan since i was 9 my brother is big unc fan i know that unc own duke every year y

  • exactly, fuck duke.

  • best teams in west ucla/kansas in east unc/kentucky

  • duke is overrated got knock off by no name school in fist round and never pass the 2nd in 6year this year i bet coach k pretend he hurt again like he did 1993got duke nobody this in top 50 ucla 3 got in top 10

  • what does duke have to do with this video? and anyways, you're fucking WRONG you dipshit. before this year, the last time duke didn't get past the 2nd round was 1997. know your facts before you run your dumb little mouth. oh, and everyone here knows you're a unc fan, so stop pretending to like ucla. how many other youtube accounts do you have?

  • 2001-2007 looke it up

  • you're the one who needs to look it up you dumbass! 2001 national champs; 2002 sweet 16; 2003 sweet 16; 2004 final four; 2005 sweet 16; 2006 sweet 16. so fuck you, trying to say that duke hasn't gone past the second round in 6 years. whoever you are a fan of, you are an embarrassment.

  • i think that those three calls really didnt effect the game i think you should have probably found a better example of refs blowing a game...

  • I agree, they didn't affect the outcome of the game, but I didn't post this as an example of refs blowing a game. I posted this video to show the bias/blindness/awfulness of ACC basketball refs. I could have easily posted almost any Duke game, but as a Canes fan, I had this game handy and was still mad over the disrespect shown us in these horrible calls. No, they didn't change the fact that UNC was destroying us, but that doesn't make the calls right.

  • unc fans have to be the dumbest fans in the country

  • hah, the way carolina fans try to defend this shit is ridiculous. whenever duke gets a questionable call in their favor, unc fans go crazy...but when unc gets the calls (which happens quite a lot), all of a sudden the denial and excuses come. and a lot of these comments show carolina's true character; claiming that miami shouldn't care becaue they were down 20 with over 8 minutes to go...anyone with a mindset like that has no heart. you are supposed to fight till the end

  • score more points. Stop crying. You people sound like you want basketball welfare!

  • So that's how they win games.

  • just for the record.... look at the score on those fouls. like it really mattered anyway.

  • billy packer is ridiculous. he hates carolina and everything it stands for cuz he went to wake and always got beat by us. stop crying we killed yall anyway.

  • what does this video have to do with billy packer?

  • Oh yeah, big surprise....Carolina getting calls.

  • heh, yeah tell me about it

  • i think it was goaltending and out of bounds, but it you will never get that foul on the shot.

  • if that was hansbrough going for the shot, it would have been a foul 9 out of 10 times...and perhaps even flagrant, if hansbrough happened to break a nail when he fell down

  • your an idot tyler gets bumbed more than anyone in ncaa and they dont get called oh and how would act after geting elbowed in the face you talk like a true duke fag

  • no you fucking moron...tyler initiates contact more than anyone in the country! take your glasses off and stop seeing everything in a tarheel blue shade. i'm not even a duke fan! how fucking stupid are you?

  • Clean block, ball not going down, guy was out of bounds but so what? Was that the difference between a win and a loss? Please don't listen to Mike Patrick. He hates Carolina. Man has his head so far up dook's butt he can't see.

  • clean block...goal tending and the outa bounds i agree with....guy was outa bounds and the ball was on its way down....but dont tell us that the refs are on carolinas side...talk to duke...they get EVERY call possible....not to mention they have the time keeper on there side too...o and they flop

  • bullshit. no surprise that you unc fans just point the blame at duke when you get called out like this.

  • '05 sure was a big time rape..woo winning the national title was just a tough raping - not

  • "battle back"??! they're down 18! on the road!! give it up.

    that block was CLEAN. wow... sad. GO HEELS!

  • typical attitude from a unc fan. might as well give up, huh? you got no heart.

  • and oh yea. the tar heels proved they were the best in the acc this year right? the first time in what 12 years!?!? hey, who has won the past 7 out of 8 champions? hmm could it be duke. other than that maryland was the only team to win in between. in the last 15 years duke has raped you guys. quite whining

  • Duke has, by no stretch of the imagination raped Carolina...ever. I'm a fan of UNC, and I agree that most, if not all of those plays should have been called as fouls. If I was the Miami head coach I'd be pissed off too. I feel that Carolina and Duke are equally fantastic teams, that's what makes the rivalry so great. But you know as well as I do, that if McRoberts leaves next year, Duke will be losing a major part of their team. Same as with Hansbrough for UNC.

  • yea we are in trouble if he leaves. but when duke played vcu he didnt seem to be giving it 100%. and throughout the season. it just doesnt seem that mcroberts was fully commited. we have a great class coming in next season and hopefully we can get patrick patterson to sorta fill in for him. i still think we will do alright with him gone. coach k never took him out. maybe now he will be forced to use the bench. so is hansbrough leaving?

  • I would if I were him. He's most likely getting some fabulous offers for the NBA. He's a crazy good player. Even with that mask on he was diving for rebounds. I'm not nearly that brave.

  • hansbrough's not getting shit from the NBA. in fact, the nba scouts that have looked at him so far have all said that he's not athletic enough and he doesn't play above the rim, so they are not sold on him. i expect hansbrough to be in chapel hill all 4 years...even if that means he's the oldest guy in the league.

  • you are out of your mind he is the pre daft 1st pick next year but he desided to stay so dont say things you dont know not athletic he might be the fastest big man from point a to b he runs the floor better than most he is strong aroud thr hole has great hands and all the post moves so hes not what now come on

  • im assuming all these idiotic comments were for me? i may talk like a typical duke fan but your spelling is an unmistakable unc quality. i cant beleive you actualy took the time to comment me from one i left at least 4 months ago. grow up and stop talking out your ass.

  • hahah you're a fucking idiot! please tell me the source that says tyler hansbrough is the 1st draft pick for next year!

  • yo duke boy espn magazine november 06 look for it

  • how fucking stupid are you unctarheelsforeal??? i said next year dumbass. and anyways, if espn really thought that back then, well they turned out to be dead wrong. espn people aren't nba scouts. hansbrough turned out to not even be the best player for unc last year...it was brandan wright. and even he wasn't number 1...not even close.

  • last 9 year that espn pick top in came true

  • what the fuck are you even trying to say? try and learn how to communicate in english you dumbfuck. also, i have a hard time believing that espn has correctly predicted the number one draft pick each of the last 9 years. that's just a retarded statement to make.

  • oh, and i'm not a duke fan you idiot. it's funny how unc fans just assume somebody likes duke because they don't like unc.

  • unc and duke games look it up unc has won alot more fag
