Creates a conundrum. No threat to score but real threat to injure
Brad Davison
- Thread starter 20eyes
- Start date
Sticking your feet under a player going up for a rebound so they come down on your foot and twist an ankle is just criminal. It’s a sure fire way to end someone’s season (or worse). And the nut punching over and over again is just insane.
Neither even close to a basketball play. Just obviously dirty and intentional. Of course, Big 10 let’s it go.

Good referees can handle a situation like this though. I still remember from bygone years the Seattle-Chicago NBA finals. The Sonics had picked up Scott Brickowski just to mix it up and be the Davison of the team against Rodman. He entered a game and as soon as he looked sideways he had two technicals and was back on the bench.
Postgame summary;
"He'll not just be remembered a great basketball player, but an even better person."

Craft was a great defender and a pest but I didn't think he was dirty like Davison
Really makes you question if Gard coaches cheap crap. Never paid much attention to Wisconsin. Would always hear Iowa whining but that is what they do. After the Michigan blow up and now them playing us, I see why they are disliked by so many teams. I guess I had seen the Davison nutpunch stuff.
Kind of a cross between Grayson Allen and Conner McCaffery. Got the worst attributes of both.
To be honest, Johnny Davis was pretty whiny but the rest of the team (obviously not Davison) mostly behaved themselves. Davison's been doing that stuff since before college. It's an integral part of who he is as a person.
That's an insult to insurance agents. Doordash is going to be his thing.
And yet both announcers were in a contest to see who could b10w him first.
I don't know that I've ever seen someone two-hand shove an opponent to get around screens. There's no way that should be allowed in the game, and worse yet, he got the fouls called on us. Beyond the flopping, he's just a dirty player. Such a shame we had to end his collegiate career.
These were both terrible calls. That being said, Caleb Grill has 10 fouls/game and I love him for it.
He definitely doesn't seem to be told to knock it off.
He only got worse as the game went on. Issues.
There's vang/bang risk taking stuff and then there's blatant unsafe behavior.
I love that Jazz got Davison back with his own game by flopping while setting a screen. Poetic justice.
Grayson Allen is actually good at basketball. Davison is not. Huge difference.
So let's count out the calls that should have been intentional/flagrant/T's.
-at least 3 times swinging elbows in a crowd.
-jumping/shoving Conditt on a somehow moving screen.
-holding the ball and complaining to the refs, slamming the ball.
-I didn't catch the strike at Kunz.
I've watched his career and he's always been sneaky but I think ISU really got in his head and we saw the true brat come out. If I'm a WI fan I'm embarrassed and questioning a coach leaving him in.
