Your memory serves correctly. I thought it was also unusual that Joe Lindsey would be slotted for this game, since he is one of the SEC's regular-rotation guys.
That said, I think those things are overblown. Higgins has as much credibility as anybody in the business, and Lindsey has been around long enough to prove himself. Clougherty put him on the Duke at Georgetown game, so I'd say he's established himself to the point where nobody should question this.
