KO Working Refs

[Chin Diesel]

For those who like to track this.....

Memphis gets a bail out call as shot clock expires. Next UConn possession Miller gets stripped/blocked. Questionable contact but no coaches barking at Refs.

At 7 minute mark Memphis gets a touch foul on a drive. Hamilton drives on next possession draws a lot of contact and no call. No coaches barking either.

Nobody can say he isn't talking tonight. That was a JC/Bob Knight worthy string of expletives after the blocking foul on Nolan. Funny.

I saw Ollie using words that would generally make a man of the cloth cringe.

But perhaps I am just a bad lip reader.

KO is fond of a GD or a JC. Your eyes are fine.

Overall I think the refs are being wildly inconsistent but not jobbing either team. Contact fouls change every time down court but I'm seeing no bias.

But we are home so yes KO and co. could be working it a little more.

Liking. Facey

The only thing that bugged me about the refs is the TV announcers comments. Are those 2 blind as bats or what? I think UConn got the benefit of the doubt tonight despite Memphis going to the line a lot, but on the Shonn Miller foul where Goodwin charged his shoulder into him with Miller's arms straight up and in position, the announcers were blind. They were like: "Definitely a foul on Miller." Then on Goodwin's 5th foul, you had to be Mr. Magoo not to see Shaq hack Miller's arm when he went up. They even showed the replay twice. Got hacked in the arm and it came off the ball.

LOL. I agree. I try not to listen to Doris Burke. I won't say anymore. I know there is a Doris Burke Fan club here. Lol@ Mr. Magoo.

Doris and her little sidekick Junior aren't the sharpest pencils in the box, although she is a UConn fan.

She does her research for the game, knows what teams are trying to do and the players and coaches names, which is a huge improvement over some of the other announcers. But on foul calls, and particularly Goodwins fifth she did not comport herself well.

Well played. Well played. You are the comporting superstar of the night. You comported yourself well in that post.

I hate Doris at this point. It's like trying to watch a game with a relative who just never shuts up.
