TERRIBLE CALL!!!

Wait - there are issues with the MEN'S officials? how is that possible?

Unbelievable! Kevin Ollie never said a peep the whole game. Got pissed at an outrageous no-call, ref teed him up twice in 30 seconds! Ref should be chucked from the game!

The ref is the one who should have been chucked. Really awful officiating, compounded by the arrogance of the ref in tossing Ollie.

 

[FairView]

That was so bad.
I can understand why Ollie had a few things to say to the jerkwad who missed an obvious foul.

That was an awful, awful call. The fact that the referee missed the call was awful, and then that he called 2 technicals on Ollie in under 15 seconds was just a stupid move. There was no need for that, 1 technical and then let him calm down a bit. If he's still screaming a minute later, than you can call the 2nd, but 2 so quickly like that? Uncalled for.

I don't think this cost the men the game, since they were already down 9 when it happened, but this certainly didn't help and pretty much doomed them from that point forward.

I didn't see the technical fouls, but I did see a missed foul on Louisville, followed by a bogus call on UConn at the end of the first half

That happened all night.

Regrettably, we could hardly expect better treatment when we play at L'ville at the end of the year.

There has always been issues with men's officials. Not nearly as many as with the women's, both male and female.

 

[doggydaddy]

I disagree. I haven't seen where men's officials are any better.

The game is faster and they miss plenty.

A good official knows when s/he has blown a call and will give the coach some slack before calling T's. Rarely will a second T be called unless the coach is basically insisting on it.

But clearly this is not a good official.
