Hack-a-Young

I realize it's part of the game and strategy of opponents, but imo, Pat gets hacked and held A LOT and many times does not get the calls because of being physically superior to the other guys guarding him.

A great example if this in yesterday's game was in the second half where Pat boxed out nicely but was physically held by the arm and drug back by his man with no call.

It tends to get him frustrated, which I feel is understandable, but can anyone else see this?

Has anyone near the Gator bench heard Billy get onto the officials for this?

He has to play through it and his frustration level, obviously. I don't believe the officials do it on purpose and am not suggeting a conspiracy, but at times it seems ridiculous.

I see it too, happened to Horford and every other physical specimen ever to play college ball, they get hacked and pushed around all game by smaller guys and never get the call - yesterday Young was undercut on rebounds- pushed out of the way while he was in the air- at least 3 times, never called. He has got to play through it

Unless, of course, the Physically Superior players play for Duke.
