  • Investigation?

    I heard that there's an investigation going against one of the refs from our UNI/Iowa game. Anyone else heard this...??
    "...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."

      Do we know for certain if the crew was assigned by the MVC or the Big Ten?

          Yes, for that game.

            i understand the sentiment of this board but its important to realize that 90% of people outside of panthernation think that the refs were atrocious in this game. i am talking national people like gottlieb and some others that actually watch as many games as possible.

              Nationally respected guys like Higgins and Janssen aren't going to be touched by any 'investigation'.

              The only people that should be being investigated are the people threatening Higgins on his business website.

              And yes, they were Big Ten assigned...

                I like Gottleib, but he's had something against Janssen for a while. And... wasn't he recruited by Fran to go to Notre Dame?

                I understand that the game could be viewed as being one sided, but given the experience of at least two of the officials --- who are highly regarded by many coaches --- I hope there would be some HARD proof of tampering, etc. before accusations are made.

                I just don't get what the motive would be?!? $$$? I shudder to think that, and really hope that's not the case. The NBA refs are still recovering from that mess.

                    If there is evidence of $$ or something that's one thing. To simply think it's rigged because some people got butt hurt over it is another. There are questionable calls in each and every game of basketball. Go back and watch the game and try to find a call that was BLATANTLY wrong and could in no way be attributed to human error.

                      We all know 9-yr is an Iowa fan so this shouldn't surprise anyone. The fact he/she continue to waste their time on a daily basis on a message board for another team is the real head scratcher.

                            Paul Janssen also did the Iowa v ISU game on Firday where Iowa had 24 fouls; only one less than in the UNI game. He's 3rd in the nation in fouls per game. Just some FYI.
