3 EJECTIONS, DOUBLE Intentional Fouls, & Technical Called During #9 Notre Dame Irish vs Northwestern 

NCAA Rules: Come off the bench & onto the floor is an automatic ejection. Refs not allowed any discretion on the matter. So the player coming onto the court to get involved & the player who went onto the court to stop her were both ejected as they should be under the rules. If the refs had a say in the matter than the one who came into the court to stop the 1st player probably wouldn’t have been ejected.

@@Manolo0528 They are the ones making the call. Of COURSE they have discretion. They chose to be f***heads. This is why everyone hates refs except other refs. Do you HONESTLY think the refs would have faced consequences for not ejecting the girl who pulled the other one back?

@@markp7262 Refs didn’t make the call because there was no call for the refs to make. It’s AUTOMATIC. So, no they had no discretion. There are rules in a sport. Refs can’t arbitrarily change them. They can’t gather the coaches & players beforehand & say these are the rules we will enforce & these we won’t enforce. These rules we will enforce except under these circumstances & in those cases we won’t enforce them.

@@Manolo0528 Section 14, Article 1 of the 2022-2023 NCAA Women's Basketball Rules Book: A disqualifying foul is any flagrant misconduct by any player or bench personnel. --- (2) When it is a noncontact foul, the unacceptable conduct of the individual is JUDGED (my emphasis) to be persistent, extreme, vulgar, and/or abusive. (b) When bench personnel: (1) Leave the bench area when a fight may break out or has broken out. The head coach and any number of assistant coaches may leave the bench area in this case to prevent the situation from escalating. I can see where only using (b)(1), you could interpret it as one step equals ejection. But I also look at the first paragraph of Article 1, which says that noncontact fouls can be judged to be persistent, etc. Reading that, I would say that simply placing a foot on the court to hold another player back is not persistent, extreme, vulgar, or abusive. Since the whole section refers to the judgment of the refs, then I read it as they have discretion. They could simply issue a technical for illegal substitution. Obviously, the one who was going out to get involved deserves the ejection. The one who just stood there is iffy, and I could see it going either way.

@@markp7262 It has been interpreted in every case as players coming in the court for any reason are ejected. No questions asked.

Than.

That doesn’t cause problems it helps you calm down. Do you know anything about life

what did she do for the dead ball tech

That was all i could think watching this lol

Bruh I'm trying to tell ya

Wow, do you say things like that about the men?

@@robin-u5l was that supposed to be deep or something?

God she makes Angel Reese look like Admiral Ackbar

She's from the "I-do-what-I-want-and-how-dare-you-give-consequences" generation.

It is easy for you to get on social media to have time to Monday morning quarterback a clip of a game to say what someone should do when you wasn’t the one facing it in real time..if you think the coach should do better why don’t you get your sanctimonious behind off social media and go apply for that coach job.

@@larryhinton991 Apologies for the late response as I'm only just seeing this now that I got an unrelated notification on this. It's a fairly common guideline across all major levels of basketball for teams to have one of the assistant coaches keep control of the bench area and make sure they're not in the way of play if the players get up to celebrate or otherwise respond emotionally to something happening on the floor. I only know this because I've been around the game for most of my life. I've been around the game for most of my life. Played AAU, student managed, had friends and brothers that played and coached high school/D1/professionally overseas, briefly covered basketball for a website, etc. but I say all that to say that I'm secure enough in my relationship with the game to not need to prove a point to a stranger over the Internet about handling an altercation.

...cause she got her teammate ejected with her.

That's why you want to push your misbehaving opponent to your bench ... So they can jack her up without getting an on floor/ejection. It's all about tactics. Lol

There's no discretion with this violation. She came onto the court, even if her intentions were right its still an automatic ejection

those aren't ejections lol let's be real

@@densonjc the rules clearly say they are. You step on the court, especially during a scuffle, that’s an ejection. Let’s be real? 😂

@@queent30826 it's a rule 99% of refs don't enforce. so not only are the refs being petty asf for doing so, but they even ejected the player who tried to pull her back to the bench. those girls reactions were most definitely justified

@@densonjc not at all. Rules are rules and I’ve never seen a ref not enforce it. And I actually played college basketball. 😂 if I were head coach, I’d be mad at the assistants and the upperclassmen, not the refs. Cause it’s their job to make sure the players know not to come on the floor when stuff like this happens. We literally had an assistant who would block us if this were to occur (which did not happen often) as well as upperclassmen who would pull underclassmen back BEFORE they got on the court. Maybe a hope you didn’t caught, but you shouldn’t be shocked when the rules are known.

@@densonjc hush child the educated adults are talking. You can kiss the Northwestern players asses later

She played for the same aau club (exodushoops) as the Norte Dame player. They’re friends. That probably influenced her thought process and resulting action to walk onto the court.

@@amobabyy Hey amiga, Norte is a direction (en espanol) Notre is the correct spelling. Como se llama "Einstein" en espanol?

​@@pirateslappy7257 What is wrong with you?

Secret's out.

It’s normally the strength and conditioning coach is the funny part so it’s a cloud like man holding back a smaller coach

The ND player was baiting the NW player, she could have easily raised her arm, and got a technical for it. Another ND player rushes in the middle of it to yell 'Relax" in the NW player's face, another baiting move. They trained them well at ND to instigate. They made a hard rule for an ejection about coming off the bench because of fights in basketball and apparently some of the girls knew on NW because they tried to stop #10 from walking out on the court. I personally think it's silly that a coach in football cannot control himself enough that he has to have another coach pull him back off the field. You don't see that in the NFL so it must be a college thing.

@@robertburch3813 It is in the NFL for sure. Sean McVay is forever on the field. He is a player at heart and gets so dialed in. lol It has nothing to do with fighting or anything though.

NW #20 hooked her first on the box out.

100%

Because she took like one and half steps on the court, apparently

@@HilltopperTA that’s ridiculous! Gosh these refs are power hungry.

If you watch closely, Northwestern's No. 20 hooked Nat first. Then Nat hooked her back. If the Wildcats weren't whining nothing would have been called.

@@turtleislandlac1490 nah fam... That was a legit box out.

No

Because people rather watch them fight to try playing ball

Reasons: "Ghetto bball " proliferation of thuggery in women's game where, ahem, one particular race in our society comprising just 12 percent of the population , but who commit well over 50 percent of all violent crimes, A. are not being brought up by their cultures' adults to be responsible and to obey and to obide our society's wisely promulgated laws and rules. B. They refuse to police their own and raise them to be civilized good citizens . C. Far far too many of them are not being raised by even 1 biological parent, let alone a preferred 2 parents (read: a mother AND a father) and so , too often,they act out even as adults who are still not taught, until it's too late ,the necessary virtuous principle that such inappropriate behavior and " actions have consequences." D. Their current failed culture is the only truly systemic racism left ... the one that pervades current USA society is that of the current failed violent culture that brainwashes or otherwise still falsely teaches their own little children that other races are " the enemy " which is actually harmful to all in society . This is because its being carried out because of their own racism due to hateful hate and jealousy ...and so , as fake accusing " Jusses" , they lie by insisting they are victims and (pretend ) martyrs...and- just as shocking - is that their culture currently refuses to reign in their own and, even worse, too often falsely accuses innocent others of victimizing them . This evil lie and pathological sick behavior often has occurred whenever they are the ones who violently steal and riot or resort to other forms of physical violence against both THEIR OWN as well as other races when they don't get their own way or when they are caught breaking laws or simple rules of etiquette as they try to unfairly gain or win unjustly at the expense of those more deserving other people in our society who work hard, play by the rules, and or who comport themselves as both fair and just ,and as law abiding, good citizens who respect the person and property owned by innocent others . THERE! That about covers it , the truth.

Yeah, she looks kind of like Rihanna, doesn't she? Mmmmm!!

The player who walked out was just dumb. That was separate. But the original foul should be on blue 15

they were already down 16

They were already down 16 dude. The game was never going to be competitive lol. ND is miles better

Walsh was stupid… how could she not know that rule??

Yes

grafted g-man hands down

I do 💘

She seems like a B to me. Like she would be high maintenance.

I wonder if she is somehow related to Gabbie Marshall at Iowa.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

She hooked her you hold someone like that

@@matthewogle6585 I didn't see that 😎 I'm ray Charles

I’m gunna have to agree 😅 ✊🏿

Exactly! 😆

Dam must bee 30-40 people there

@@williamanderson6006 The reason women's basketball teams have so many scholarships and so many coaches/staff is simply to inflate the attendance figures at these terrible games. It's very foolish that so many schools use the same arena for women's and men's teams.

​@@timh2065 That is idiotic; they do not count coaches in the attendance figures.

You don’t get your arms locked up like that if they’re not both actively doing it.

She never had her she was pointing to reff and clearly said calm down to girl who ran up to her. She wasn't a problem clearly 15 should have a technical foul

This is satire right?

Do you have problems controlling yourself at the zoo?

This is barely violent be real.
