Definitely not a smart play because of what ‘could have happened if he connected’ but players are going to get frustrated being constantly held and manhandled. Jerome was holding Brissett back and the constant hands on defense allowed while Boeheim is telling these same players being held and pushed on offense to keep their hands straight up on defense when they get called - has to be exasperating. No excuse for losing it but I can sadly understand it. Refs have to control this stuff, it’s their job to control the physicality and allowing arm bars, holding, slapping, hand checking all over offensive players - all illegal needs to be called. [/QUOTE]
