Just a couple questions for of curiosity's sake. What year did the Hightower/Teddy V/Bobby K incident happen, circa 1998?
And does anyone know how many Final Four assignments Hightower & Teddy V each have received since that incident?

I do not know how many exactly but I think Hightower has been there at least 3 times. I think Teddy has been there at least 2 times. Now this is total memory on my part. Why do you ask?
Peace

Just wondering if either one's Final Four assignments curtailed after the incident.
I've heard an hearsay account of what happened that evening from someone who knew both Hightower & Valentine and is still friendly with one of the two. But my military background precludes me from passing along gossip.

From Excel Sports Officiating website bio of Ed Hightower:
"He worked seven consecutive NCAA Final Four tournaments from 1988 to 1994 and again in 1996 and 2002."
Add the semifinal game between Illinois and Louisville that he worked in 2005 and that makes 10 Final Fours.
The info I want is how old is he? Does anyone out there have a definitive source for his birthdate?
Someone else will have to do the FF research on Valentine.
