Exclamation This is not a debate over who is the best.

Okay, then I misinterpreted the point. Normally when a topic like this comes up it's because people are complaining about women's programs. So many men's officials are stuck on their mechanics being the best and/or only way to do things (at least where I'm from). I didn't think the original post was meant as a compliment....my bad.
Who cares whose mechanics are the best. I would not watch either an NCAA Women's game or a WNBA game. Chuck is asking a legitimate question here (I cannot believe I just said that ) And it is clear that the NCAA Men's are very reluctant to follow the NBA way of officiating. Even the changes that the Men have made in the past few years, have been to keep their identity. On the flip side the Women's side, whether direct or indirect have tried to adopt everything the NBA/WNBA are doing. That is a common observation and I think Chuck asking the question is very appropriate.

Peace
