  • We could hit inside, the officials were terrible

    and we still beat ISU. I can't imagine many teams will be able to hang with us inside. Once our shots become a bit more automatic, we'll be really tough in the paint.

    The short, fat ref was the worst of a bad bunch. Were those Valley refs or Big 12 refs? Anybody know? I didn't recognize any of them.

      They all ref both leagues. The Valley increased pay last year for refs, so the officiating is that of what the Big 12/10 is.
      The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

          ...and why no Hartzell Half-Time Report? I miss it, not that Coach Glas isn't cool, but Hartzell's the man!

            Thanks. I'm just used to seeing the crew with the ref who's got floppy blonde, perfectly parted hair and an ever-glow, all winter tan.

              The tall guy was terrible. I believe he was the one that both Jake and Mac were upset about in the first half.

                This is correct. Most officals work multiple leagues.

                As an example, it's quite likely you'll see Ed Hightower, who is widely regarded as the best offical on the planet, working a game in Cedar Falls one night, and then Champaign the next.

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."

                    Yeah, that's the one!

                    What a great idea for this Christmas season: Official Collegiate Licensed Referee Ken Doll, complete with removable referee uniform, solid black basketball sneaks, and working whistle. Not recommended for children over the age of 30.

                        His name is John Higgins and he's a very good referree. We all suck some nights, but he's one of the better ones.

                          But those who suck end up doing East Waterloo and Cedar Falls JV games.
