Wofftard aka Flop-fford vs. Furman (Larsen stop flopping son)

[gman84]

We should change this thread from Woff-tard to Flop-fford.

Larsen is the dang worst, been doing it for 4 years, usually is never touched, kid is soft

Refs should be well aware of him and that whole teams flopping antics going into the tourney, its certainly no secret

I just had to resurrect this. Only Woffy would boast about teaching the art of flopping.

Teaching kids the opposite of sportsmanship. Pathetic.

I'm all about calling a flop a flop when it happens. But when did legitimately drawing a charge become "the opposite of sportsmanship"?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the point of the tweet was the video is teaching youth how to sell illegitimately drawing a charge. I.e., how to "flop" upon trivial contact.

The boy was inside the restricted area. Not a charge. Foul on the ball handler.

Drawing a charge is legit. No one has said otherwise. Flopping under any circumstances is not legit, and is not good sportsmanship.

I imagine watching a Woff practice against themselves looks a bit like this for 2 hours

I must be watching a different video. I see a kid about six years old being taught to get in a good defensive stance, to move his feet and get his feet out side the restricted area to cut off penetration. When contract is made to go down. I do not believe we want a 180lb man running into this kid to teach him how to properly draw a charge.

Flopping is not bad sportsmanship. If the ref call a charge it was a good play. If the ref does not, the offensive player gets a lay up. It is up to the ref to make the right call. Also how much contact does it take for it not to be a flop?

Of course, flopping is bad sportsmanship. It does not matter what call the ref makes. The definition of flopping is when a player over exaggerates contact and falls backward trying to simulate a foul. It is against the rules and a player can be warned and charged a technical. As for the video, it was just our way of poking fun at Woffy, the king of flopping teams. It is obvious they practice flopping. They do a great job at it too. It is still bad sportsmanship.

Wofford lost a game this year because they (Larson) flopped at the wrong time. They were playing Coastal Carolina back in December. They had fooled the refs several times earlier in the game but Larson was charged twice in the last 43 seconds with blocking with the Terriers leading. The second time turned out to be the game deciding play. Wofford was up by 1 point with 1 second on the clock when Larson was called for the foul. The guy with the ball was a long way from the basket when the foul was called He was not going to get off a good shot.The CCU guy hit the FTs. Game.

Fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly, floppers gotta flop.
