Contrast that with the women's tournament and compare how many calls are outside their primaries. The ratio has to be at least 10 to 1. I know for myself, I'm just not good enough to get plays right all over the floor. I guess someday I can be as good as Jim Burr and be successful at it.
So, according to you, the NCAA officials working in the tournament not only are terrible, they also lack balls too.

Would you mind telling everybody exactly what your qualifications are to completely denigrate the accomplishments of what the NCAA has determined to be the best officials available? Are you currently working at the D1 level? Have you ever worked at the D1 level? Are you currently evaluating for a D1 conference?

Or, as is probably more likely, maybe you're just another back-stabbing, integrity-free clown that's full of jealousy because you're not good enough to be working at that level.

When someone like you dumps on every single official working in the NCAA tournament, it kinda makes you wonder what we're dealing with. We expect that crap from fanboys. We don't expect it from people who actually profess to be an official. If you really are an official, you've got one helluva lot to learn about integrity imo.
