I had to actually lookup and see when the Tacy era was and just took a guess.<BR/><BR/>Yeah, funny how he fell down. <BR/>You remember trying that in intramural ball? I can't remember if you were there or not, I think I was coaching because it was the lower level team. We actually managed to get the foul called on us because our guy pulled the defender down on him. I remember the ref, really good ref that I didn't like much, called it an "Intentional Technical Foul" and I went off on him, because there was no such thing. He later apologized for the terminology, saying it was a proper call in high-school but not under our "college" rules.Ken Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13196005991325229413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7340889888833193780.post-36712995144715910482007-11-26T10:12:00.000-05:002007-11-26T10:12:00.000-05:00I thought about that too when they ran the play......I thought about that too when they ran the play...

With 0.4 seconds left, Nova tried my favorite play in basketball that NEVER works. They have one guy inbounding the ball. Costner guards the inbounder. As the inbounder runs the baseline, another Nova player steps in, in an attempt to draw a charge on Costner as he runs the baseline in defense.<BR/><BR/>The first time I ever saw this attempted, it was by Carl Tacy at Wake Forest back in the early 80s. Over the years I've seen it attempted maybe a dozen times when there just isn't enough time left for a legit length of the floor effort. I even tried it in an intramural game once. Funny thing is, it NEVER, NEVER, NEVER works. <BR/><BR/>In this case, Costner saw it coming and pull away from the defender.Ken Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13196005991325229413noreply@blogger.com
