As a UK fan I am literally praying that we don't see Hess in Austin. He has really hurt UK in recent years in big games. North Carolina's 40 plus free throws this year with two phantoms on Chuck in the first 5 minutes. Last year in the UAB game, he called a horrible charge on Buike, and a 5 second call on the out of bounds, which was really only 4, and on replay shows his body leaned in at 3! as if he was wanting to blow the whistle, he waited until 4 to do so.
He also called the Marquette game of 3 years ago and made another horrible charge call that involed A. Barbour. It was so bad that both the TV and arena counted the basket that AB made. Hess waived the basket and called a charge which ended up being a 5 6 point turnaround because Marquette hit a three the next trip.

Hess called the Duke games of this past weekend and is widely known as a ACC/Duke ref. I hope the NCAA does not put him in the same region as Duke, and especially UK.

He has hurt us in many ways over the years.

Anyone know where Hess may be going?
