College basketball desperately needs a replay review system to determine fouls at the end of the games.
On Thursday night, Samford got screwed by refs when A.J. Staton-McCray’s block on Kansas’ Nick Timberlake was called a foul with under twenty seconds to go in the game.

It’s clear that Staton-McCray got all ball on the play.

Unfortunately, while refs can review out-of-bounds plays in college, they can’t review foul calls.
Fans are now calling for the NCAA to make a rule change that would allow for fould calls to be reviewed at the end of games.
So the refs can review every tiny thing that doesn’t matter in the game every five seconds of a college basketball game but can’t do anything about a call that actually matters

College basketball has to fix itself, your gonna review every out of bounds, loose ball, clock situation but when there’s a foul call that might not have been a foul (actually wasn’t a foul) you don’t go to review??

to be able to review this obvious OOB call but not the foul call… rules don't make sense

Hopefully the NCAA implements some sort of replay system for foul calls at the end of the games to prevent what happened to Samford on Thursday night.
