Not hating...just facts. Just because Kelley and Falk give this guy a ton of games, he really isn't much better than the averageg official. He can't run, mechanics are horrible, and play calling is suspect. He gets so many games because of his relationship with the supervisors. If he was so good, he would advance further than what he does. The man works over 100 plus games, but crunch time in the tourney, where is he? I don't work the NCAA either, but neither do I have Kelley and Falk in my pocket.
If he was evaluated like everyone else, he would not work as much as he does...that is why the he doesn't advance. It has nothing to do with whether or not he is a nice guy...he is a very nice guy and tells great jokes at camp. However, honestly break down a tape of his and critique objectively and you will see the facts speak for themselves.
Which brings another question: why is it okay and acceptable for veterans to do WHATEVER they want when it comes to mechanics and the like? Are they bigger than the game? I relate this to police officers breaking a law because they feel like they can.
