No surprise from ESPN

[mhsbc59]

Just saw our game highlight on ESPN and surprise surprise the only thing they showed was the foul how we should all feel bad for SH player then cut to the coach's and what they thought of the call. 

[ShadowHawg]

Beasley's block was the biggest play of the game.

[moses_007]

Who is this Beasley?

[Danny J]

Just goes to show how apathetic the national media/markets are towards our program and it will take beating a one seed on national TV type of victory to get us back on the right track to respectability.

[ShadowHawg]

Who is this Beasley?

The guy Vitale talked to in our locker room before the Kentucky game.

[mhsbc59]

Who is this Beasley?

You know Noah Beasley the mouse not the man that plays for arkansas

[Iwastherein1969]

Just enjoy the fact that we took a point away from Dickie V's bracket. Also, Dickie V's an alum of Seton Hall.   

[mhsbc59]

The block didn't even make SC top 10

No such thing as bad publicity.  They probably wouldn't have even talked about our game otherwise.  Oh well, there are only 32 teams left and we're part of it so I'm happy!

[mhsbc59]

Oh my God the women on SportsCenter are so dumb

[PharmacistHog]

Good God will yall PLEASE stop being victims?  We won the game. The foul was the correct call but it was an interesting part of the game. Nobody is out to get us. Geez.

Not say the foul wasn't a part of the game but there where plenty of other highlight they could have showed in probely the best game of the day

[mhsbc59]

Again on the west coast ESPN it's all about the foul. Nothing about mosses going off for 23 points 4 blocks and 4 rebounds. It's so sicking

[tennesseehogwild]

just glad it wasn't the other way around and happened to us. I am pretty sure I would be pissed. But I know the rule and I know they got it right. We still win the game anyway it goes I think.

[Hog Pharm]

Oh my God the women on SportsCenter are so dumb

Yeah they said we've made the second round of the tournament twice and have been beaten by unc both times. 

[mhsbc59]

Yeah it not like we have been to 4 final fours and have along a rich tournament history the made it sound like we have only ever been to the tournament 3 times ever

6 but who's counting

[Rawker]

Who cares?  Is Arkansas now running for President of Basketball?  We just want a solid program to where we can be in on this fun year and year out.  That's all you can hope for.  If recruits are starting to put Arkansas on their map, that's all that matters.  Media apathy towards the Hogs....who gives a crap?

[Dwillhog66]

6 but who's counting

6 final 4's. Not sure how many times we've been in the tournament but Richardson made it 13 times in his tenure

[The Kig]

just glad it wasn't the other way around and happened to us. I am pretty sure I would be pissed. But I know the rule and I know they got it right. We still win the game anyway it goes I think.

It was an awful call, but happy it went our way. 

[(notOM)Rebel123]

It was an awful call, but happy it went our way. 

But it was the correct call, per the rule.

[12247]

Didn't get to see the game, was busy.  There is a good possibility that we could b in Seton's shoes on Sunday.  Hope we learned from that call.

[popcornhog]

Shame they didn't show that. Media continuing to show their bias

Wait, what?! Now the media has a pro Seton Hall bias?

Classic hogville.

[hoglady]

I'd take that. A one possession game with under a minute to play.

[hogman99]

Classic hogville.

Don't forget how much the refs suck....... every game.

[Athog]

It was an awful call, but happy it went our way. 

It was an awful mistake by Seton Hall. Most officials would not have made the call. By definition of the rules it was the correct call. Don't apologize for the correct call. The game was horribly officiated with inconsistent calls throughout.

[hawgmasta]

Who is this Beasley?

A ruffian, a thug, a flagrant foul machine. Sick Vitale knows him well.

[LZH]

When the refs were huddled up, I never expected to get that call. But as they turned to the table, before the commentator even finished his sentence I knew by the tone of his voice that we had it won.

If it were called a normal foul, that game could have gone the other way. I know they didn't hit any more shots, but had we missed the front end of the 1 & 1, who can say what would have happened. A long pass, a run out and a layup? Different game then.

Considering how bad they were abusing us on the boards on their end, I'll take it.....all day every day.

[ICEman]

Beasley's block was the biggest play of the game.

Beasley the beast's best basketball block!

[hogcard1964]

Oh my God the women on SportsCenter are so dumb

+1000

ESPN is hard to watch.

[mhsbc59]

Beasley the beast's best basketball block!

This needs to be made into a poster

[supersaint]

Watching Sec Now on Secn.  Not seeing any hog highlights.

[Hogcephus]

6 final 4's. Not sure how many times we've been in the tournament but Richardson made it 13 times in his tenure

This is our 31st trip to the tournament. We have 42 wins and 30 losses after yesterday's game. We have a very strong tradition that many other programs would love to have.

[Snorts]

It was called a common foul at first, because the Refs suspected that after replay it would be upgraded to an F1.  You can go that way, but apparently can't go the other.  So the process for an F1 started with the call.

I was watching with others and the moment the call was made we all had some sort of comment like...he wasn't playing the ball, or that could be flagrant.  Our bench erupted with people calling for a flagrant.  The call didn't come from out of the air.  You have to at least pretend you are going for the ball.

I heard one of the refs say "two shots" when they were coming out of the review. 

[mckinneyhog5]

Didn't we go into the double bonus after that foul? I think it would have been 2'shots anyway. Could be wrong..

[PonderinHog]

Not sure, but when I heard that I was surprised.  The thing about that foul was the more you look at it, the more flagrant it looks.  Live, it didn't look too bad, but slow it down and it looked flagrant as hell. 

Is my bias showing

[DLUXHOG]

6 final 4's. Not sure how many times we've been in the tournament but Richardson made it 13 times in his tenure

Between Sutton & Nolan, 22+ straight, consecutive NCAA appearances, I think (there may be a year or two in there that were NIT appearances.......)

[ATLHog]

Good God will yall PLEASE stop being victims?  We won the game. The foul was the correct call but it was an interesting part of the game. Nobody is out to get us. Geez.

YES YES YES- exactly right. National media is not conspiring against the Arkansas sports programs. I watched the CBS/Turner networks coverage all night and each time they showed Hogs replay it featured THE BLOCK as well as non-partisan commentary on the final score.
C'MON MAN

[Pig in the Pokey]

It was an awful call, but happy it went our way.

no it wasnt/ he pushed him from behind. That's always a flagrant.

[Pig in the Pokey]

Are you serious Clark? You skipped the NCAA Tourney GAME? What, pray tell, was sooooooo important? I notice you didnt say "work". Did the wife do that to you , bro?

[Pig in the Pokey]

YES YES YES- exactly right. National media is not conspiring against the Arkansas sports programs. I watched the CBS/Turner networks coverage all night and each time they showed Hogs replay it featured THE BLOCK as well as non-partisan commentary on the final score.

ok, dude. sigh. One does not have to have an active conspiracy against another to still not treat them fairly. It's very obvious we dont get treated the same.

[Dwillhog66]

I remember the hogs playing A state in the NIT early in Nolans time here. We won by the skin of our teeth. So there was a break in there

Ron Huery was the hero in that game.

I can't remember the stars in that game but I definitely remember being down by a ton at one point. Didn't Whitby have a big game too?

[Hollywood870]

Who is this Beasley?

Look. This dude doesn't even know our players names you guys.

[Richard_white]

If I remember right, Whitby scored to put it to OT.

[PonderinHog]

Look. This dude doesn't even know our players names you guys.

First name Mouses, right

[AlmaHog2011]

It was an awful call, but happy it went our way.

100% correct call. I wish it wasn't called we still win the game. But it's now what decided the game. Our players deserve better.

[BrooklynRoss]

Who is this Beasley?

Really close family friend of Dick Vitale, plays for Arkansas under an alias.
