This is driving me nuts! It's been a pattern and now it's a problem. Schmidt needs to spend a practice drilling these guys on how to set a proper screen.

If you think they do not practice setting screens, you are very naive. Just like those that cried after recent game at the RC (I forget which one) that we did not practice free throws.
We set more high screen than many of our opponents. Just like any other "foul", it is a judgment call and sometimes it goes against us and sometimes it doesn't.

An illegal screen can also be a screen set can be when your legs are wider than your shoulders even if you don't move.

It almost seems like the Bonnies have a reputation for setting either wide screens or moving screens and the refs target it.
I think some of the problem is two straight years of having freshman big men setting so many screens. I don't remember it being much of a problem for Schmidt teams before the past two years.
I also wonder what role our guards play in getting more of these calls. Adams posley and mobley are the 3 best guards of the Schmidt era which changes how the defenses attack the ball screen. Where I think in the past defenses went under the screen they are fighting over the top of the screen more against us to prevent an open shot. This probably means the screeners inclination is to move or at least widen his stance which you can only get away with so often

I do think teams and individual players get reputations among the refs who then subsequently look for actions that confirm their preconceived bias. The amount of times I see the arm go up before the foul is even committed is atrocious.
