Your post for some reason made me think, should refs watch game film like teams do?
Learn the annoying head jerks teams do, flops, etc? Hmmm
It seems like Jaz has earned a rep and been punished for it several times. Not sure why Davison got to do it with impunity?

I can't imagine being an Iowa fan.
FIFY

As for Davison, did people not hear the in-game story of how he decided to return for his "COVID" year? After last season, he went on vacation in Florida for six weeks, fishing and playing cards with his family (= rich spoiled punk). He decided to return because he wants to "coach" and felt it'd be a great opportunity to work with this young Wisconsin squad.

Not what I want to see, a college team emulating that tool! Who'd have imagined we'd find a player we dislike more than Jorbo & Aaron Craft?

I was just having a discussion with a friend over which dbag Iowa State beat this season was a bigger dbag. Bohannon or Davison.
I actually asked that question in the reddit game thread. Basically unanimous that Davison is way worse from the answers I got.

They should really get rid of drawing charges while you are backing someone down in the post. Unless you are forceably throwing an elbow into someone, simply backing someone down that is weaker than you is not a crime.

We've played JBO 6 times. Davison annoyed me more 5 minutes into that game than JBO has in 6 years. JBO talks a lot of **** but he doesn't do the in game cheap shot dirty flopping antics of Davison. JBO plays pretty clean. Davison's entire skill set revolves around making non basketball plays such as intentionally running over a screener hoping to get a foul called.

To be honest, that Michigan team looked like a bunch of bodybuilders and we looked like a bunch of string beans. They didn't have a chance to keep up with us going up and down the court and they didn't have anybody that could actually shoot.
Roy Tarpley, Butch Wade, Richard Relleford, Gary Grant etc. Plus a young Glen Rice. Wow

I spend a non-trivial portion of the second half preparing myself for him to put a nail in the coffin. Glad we got through it.

Even that last 15 seconds I kept expecting him to get some weird bucket then hit a 3 at the buzzer or something stupid, and that's after he should have been tossed for two (three) flagrants with the elbow slinging, T ups for arguing, etc.

If J. Davis had hit some shots and willed his team to a win, that would have sucked but so be it for an AA earning his keep.

Davison doing it would have been an awful feeling.

The worst was a moving screen called on Conditt late in the game where George didn’t even set a screen. He turned and moved away from the ball handler and Davison just ran right up his back. So they call it on George, probably our 6th of the game.

I have to say I sympathize with Juwan Howard a lot more after seeing Wiscy in action. Gard can suck a big d for the way that team plays.

Don’t create excuses for Juwan. Absolutely be annoyed with how Wisconsin plays if you want. But Howard should get zero sympathy for losing his **** at the end of that game. If you’re going to press until the dying second when hopelessly behind, don’t flip out like a little ***** when the opposing coach takes a TO.
