Cincinnati post game thread

[superjohn]

Officiating has been killing the entire sport for years.

It’s probably never going to improve - the players are too athletic, the court is too small, the crowds and coaches too crazy.

The refs should tee up Hurley and Mick immediately and give themselves a fighting chance.

But if you can’t get over the fact the refs are going to blow - you should find something else to watch.

Basketball is by far my favorite sport but the refs are making it almost unwatchable and the inconsistencies with the flagrants is maddening.

If you're gonna let them play, don't then call ticky tacks, be consistent. Most games are called way too tight, it's like a field hockey game with all the whistles.

My biggest pet peeve is all the touch fouls they call when people are jockeying for position and then they keep missing jump shooters getting hit on the arm, if there is ever any contact (even the slightest) on a jump shooters arm it needs to be called. In the final minute of the game between Seton Hall and Marquette, two Seton Hall players were blatantly fouled shooting threes with no whistle.

I assumed there was a rule that coaches cannot interact with the refs.

Dan Hurley spends more time crying to refs in one game than Brad Stevens does in an NBA season.

This and they have flipped the advantage to the defense by favoring charges.

That Tarin Smith missed layup really hurt. Tarin was making all kinds of crazy layups before conference play now he can’t get any to go down.

I never reffed above high school.

But I can tell you from being a LJ on a Bloomfield football sideline you can’t ref the game and manage coaches acting that insane.

Bloomfield staff is another level

 

[whaler11]

Yeah i'm fine with fire and coaches getting on refs when it's warranted but i'm not all about promoting it and marketing it to the peasants.

I know a summer college baseball league who actively pushed GM's and team presidents to hire managers who got ejected a lot because 'fans love it.'


Sprinkle in youth sports in general and people wonder why no one wants to do the job anymore and why officiating is getting worse. It's the refs fault, of course.

Yep I def hit a Newport Gulls game to see if Earl Weaver Jr is managing.

Ha! Wasn't that league, but yeah Coombs is a piece of work.

It seems like everything in the college game is geared towards the defensive player and everything in the NBA is geared towards the offensive player.

 

[temery]

Really worried about Jalen and the shirt thing tho.

They should just print the top of his shorts on the bottom of his shirt.

How do you start a post game thread 11 hours before the game starts? Seems a little strange?

I didn’t start a post game thread, one of the mods must have changed the title and merged my original “I feel sorry to be a ref with Danny and Mick on the sidelines” thread.

Still can't understand that one. He is not a brutal player, but that play had a brutal result.

Cochran years?

 

[JLock819]

Maybe if people here didn't blame the refs for every loss, they'd have more credibility when the refs actually do a bad job. The complaints are embarrassing.

Again, the refs were terrible.... and the STATS, not me, show a glaring discrepancy in favor of Cincy. Is that incorrect?

 

[Jay-Bone]

Doing a bad job is a totally different animal than the complaints that refs favor one team over another.

Bad reffing is one thing, but relativity is the problem. They called this way too one sided and should have been able to adjust.

 

[AntG168]

We’ll never know, but I swear rique would’ve won that game if given the chance...

 

[whaler11]

Cochran years?

Jack was at NB then. I had them a few times but never their sideline. The stories are legendary.

If I was there now I’d just say let’s eject them and play the game. The amount of abuse we absorbed was stupid.

Just tell him it’s magic.

Yeah, your got folded in by mistake. Sorry, can't undo it.

 

[scotty0330]

I think a lot of these refs just do not like hurley. We foul way too much but not as much as we get called for...besides the smu first half we always put the opponent in the bonus early, even at home.

There is no way you can like or even tolerate Cronin so I am not buying that.

 

[Hurleyman216]

I personally don’t care, but it’s really bothering Chief, so try not to let it happen again. Thanks for all you do running this circus

He predicted this game would end.

Has a prediction percentage >>>>> Chiefs

Created and deleted before the game. Undeleted after the game.

I made a promise to Mrs. Dove to never go to bed angry. So how late do I have stay up?

Until we win our 5th National Championship

He sounded like a psycho or just like 50% of the football coaches from Texas, Florida, and Georgia.
