I don't think he has "textbook" mechanics, but that can be said of quite a few successful D-1 officials. But, like I said, he's seen quite a bit, and the players like him as well, so what is he doing that makes him successful? Maybe it's his personality? So, because he is successful, shouldn't that make him a candidate for a Final 4 assignment?

When I was talking about mechanics, I was referring to three man mechanics.
What I'm trying to say is this, getting along with everyone and ONLY calling the obvious does not make for someone I would look at as one of my favorites.
