It's just that every time John Adams is mentioned or in the news, he seems to be threatening NCAA tournament assignments in one way or another. It's the only stick he has and I think at times he overplays it.

I do not think that is a bad thing as people cannot say he is not watching. I also think it helps those of us not on that level because we have the NCAA taking a stand on this behavior and when we work our lower level games we have something to support our enforcing these situations.
John is a very smart guy. He knows what he is doing and how to get the attention of those under his belt. As stated he cannot take away a regular season assignment, but he can certainly determine how far some guys go in the tournament. And if you look at assignments in the last couple of years, it is clear he means business when it comes to not turning a blind eye like guys used to. Many of the big timers were not working late in the tournament as a result.
