I have been watching the final 4 tourney and for the most part I believe the officiating has been very good. However early in the tourney I saw this rotund, out of shape ,official work a game and he made several really bad calls and didn't expect to see him assigned another game. He couldn't even keep up with the play as he waddled back and forth on the court. Well, guess what? There he was again in the FINAL!!! I couldn't believe it.
Just like the first game I witnessed, he again makes the worst block charge interpretation I have ever seen at that level. He also would pass on one right in front of him then next time call something on the exact same situation. Talk about lack of consistency!! I'm sure he had everyone guessing and confused after a while. I would have thought the selection committee could have found many better choices over all these games. Where I have reffed, a person in that shape with that kind of judgement and consistency would have difficulty getting High School games.
