The House of Blue

I never follow or care about the refs and if the day comes I do, shame on us. These kids play their game, the game we've seen many many times this year then we shouldn't care about the referee's.

Lucke already has 2-3 "mystery" type calls. Keep an eye on him. Antigua spent an entire timeout debating with him.

Which one is Luckie?

This!

Luckie is horrific..I am pretty sure we had him in the Uconn game in the final 4 last year..He just makes stuff up..
Whoever called the last foul on Terrence was not watching the play..the ball spun out and Jones never touched
anyone..That is the kind of crap they have to pay more attn to..There is no way they should have been in the
bonus in the second half before us..They fouled a lot more than we did..

I didn't notice the names, but I had pointed out the official who just happens to be Luckie, and indicated pretty much exactly what you said, Jeff. I told my wife,"When you call two separate technicals, and people aren't fighting, you've got an attitude problem."

They were awful!!!!

He would have been at times. Refs are suppose to rotate between their positions every few minutes during dead ball situations.

Yes Luckie T'd up Jones..he is a moron..Funny thing here...My brother who knows nothing about the game itself was watching with us Sat night,and he was talking about how it looks like the refs have something riding on the game..He knows enough to see that a foul is a foul and some were being called and others were not..The college game is not what it used to be and it's a damn shame..The officiating the last several years has been horrendous..

Can coaches or schools request for a particular official to not be assigned to them?

I'm not a conspiracy theorist type person but I can't help but believe that there are people in the NCAA and media who flat out do not want Calipari / Kentucky to win a championship. I believe the officiating is only going to get worse starting with the IU game.
