The defensive player clearly knocks her back a couple of feet by putting her shoulder into Bri's chest as Bri is in the air.

Yes, indeed.  The annoying Purdue announcer was flat-out wrong.  The defender jumped, twisted in air, but hit Bri with the whole side of her body--so it wasn't even a niggling hand check.  I think it may have fooled some people because the defender was looking back toward the basket while twisting at the time she descended into Bri's chest.  Truthfully the ball was away before contact, but the flying body certainly altered the shot.  Interesting that the Purdue coach called it a "phantom" foul after the game.  She did admit that they had fouled us way too much, in general.  Near perfect free throw shooting simply made it more noticeable.

As for coaches walking on the court, in the game against George Washington, in the first half their coach was walking out and standing several feet on the court during game play.  I started shouting "Get off the court!" and "Technical!" and I think during a lull in crowd noise I was heard.  Or maybe not :P  In any case, a ref talked to him and he nonchalantly sauntered back to his box. 

Just how far into the court are coaches allowed to go before the refs T them up?

By the way, AP rankings are out and we fell to 16.  ASU is at 17 after losing to Kentucky and South Carolina.  Oregon State still at 7 and undefeated, though they haven't really played anyone.
