I know, personally, a couple of final four officials and they have told me stories about how they have screwed up rules because they haven't known them. These stories involve situations in the NCAA tournament. These officials have great presence and credibility, but some of them have terrible mechanics and I would think that rules knowledge is somewhat suspect, due to the stories they tell about themselves. Does that make them "poor" officials? I don't think so.
Stripes, let me ask you this. Is there any correlation between their rule knowledge and their screw-ups? Would you want to ref a final four game with them on National TV knowing their rule knowledge was suspect? Not me.
