Bob Donato looked like he was having a stroke during the Marq game in Hartford last season. Never seen more blatantly bad calls in one game in my life, seriously
Cahill is just a cheater. The man has impacted the outcome of several games of our with horrible calls against us in the final minutes, starting with the "sarcastic clapping" technical against Donny @ Providence
Higgins just enjoys getting booed. You want him on the road, not at home
Burr is more like Donato, just a mystery to all

You have to give him some props, he called a pretty decent game for us back in 1999.
Happy retirement Mr. Higgins

All these guys were good refs. Why do you think we got them so often? Great teams in good games get the highest rated refs. As fans, we hate it more when supposedly good refs make bad calls. It happens and they never change a call. I'll miss them because I'm not confident their replacements will be as good.
Donato: Clearly time to go. Didn't have good enough control of the game for a supposedly great ref. Was overrated and only a 'B' ref in his prime.
Higgins: Couldn't make it up/down the court any more. JC worked him over the years to being a plus for us. Was an A- ref in his prime with great vision.
Burr: Great grasp of what to look for in the college game. A bit too controlling for my taste and now thinks he's part of the show. Was an A ref in his prime. Now a B+, looking to dictate the type of game to be played.
Cahill: Gets too much flak. Knows what he's doing but is touchy and an egomaniac. At times looks for calls. Was an A ref and is now a B+ due to some recent errors in big games.
