If so, maybe it was his grade for the entirety of his work, not just a single blarge call. I was critical of his effort in the First Four game, so it's not like I'm saying it is not possible. But your post makes it seem as if you know that he was sat down b/c of a blarge call in his game.

Yes; I stand by the information as directly credible. The site committee had issues with either the call or the adjudication of the penalty; I have not seen this play and would like to see a clip of it in it's entirety.

As for the "entirety of his work", if I recall correctly, Breeding was involved in another type of "blarge" play in the Play-In game at Dayton, Vanderbilt vs Wichita St.

IMO, having 2 "blarges" in 2 separate games is not a good thing when working the NCAA tournament and hoping to advance. I happen to think Breeding is a very good official who has excellent call selection. Sometimes we as officials have a difficult stretch of calls and he happened to do it on a very big stage with many scrutinizing eyes.

Do you have inside information or not?

How would I exactly do that? Would you like me to tell you how I know what took place? Reveal the source?

At least now I don't feel so bad for my assessment of him in the play-in game. I just felt like he wasn't all there. I think we've all been there, I know I have.

I wasn't using the phrase as harshly as it sounded there....just as part of a figure of speech.
