Most of the travel calls seem to be……

Shuffling the feet before shooting the ball
Shuffling the feet before starting a dribble/drive

Changing the pivot foot is often missed
Taking three or more steps after the dribble on a drive to the basket are often missed
Rolling/sliding on the floor with the ball used to be called a lot, but it seems that has been overlooked in a lot of cases
Double dribble is rarely called

Just my observations at VT home games the past few years.
Palming is very rarely called, but they did call one against Pitt last night.

Double dribble? -- farmville hokie 01/21/2022 7:29PM

You misspelled Ty Jerome. ** -- YBYSAIAHokie 01/21/2022 10:57PM

It was. Can only assume the officials thought it was slapped away not off -- GBOHokie 01/21/2022 9:23PM

Yet the ref called the ball off of Mutts'(?) foot -- TomTurkey 01/21/2022 10:05PM

I thought a Pitt WBB player walked under her basket -- TomTurkey 01/21/2022 9:17PM

Walks are hard, a lot of the time in a crowd, you see the travel... -- HOKIE75-79 01/21/2022 9:22PM

True. I had to think about it but 2 full steps with the ball is a travel -- TomTurkey 01/21/2022 9:39PM

You can take 2 steps..it is when the foot touches the floor for a 3rd step ** -- HOKIE75-79 01/22/2022 09:02AM

I can't recall now. Usually it's obvious immediately. ** -- TomTurkey 01/22/2022 11:22AM

Straight slide with ball is NOT traveling..you can go end to end . ** -- HOKIE75-79 01/22/2022 09:04AM

This is traveling... -- IB4TECH 01/21/2022 10:18PM

That was the worst, Scheyer moved from the paint to near the arc ** -- soflahokie 01/22/2022 10:10AM

Yeah, I was actually watching that game. -- RJHokie 01/21/2022 10:21PM

LOL, I missed your earlier post. I think of that all the time. ** -- IB4TECH 01/21/2022 10:23PM

Me too, particularly when watching Duke play! ** -- RJHokie 01/21/2022 10:24PM

True. Cue up the Duke quadruple travel. SMH ** -- TomTurkey 01/21/2022 10:03PM

The Scheyer Shuffle…… -- RJHokie 01/21/2022 10:05PM

LOL up there with the infamous double digit foul game at Cameron ** -- TomTurkey 01/21/2022 10:08PM

Delete dupe** -- TomTurkey 01/21/2022 9:16PM

Yes double dribble..he picked the ball up with both hands ** -- HOKIE75-79 01/21/2022 7:56PM
