Per Yahoo Sports, there will be four replacements, and they were meeting protocols just in case (sort of like alternate jurors still sit in the jury box).

No names yet. Two will not be replaced at all.

John Adams posted on Facebook that the official who tested positive is very sick at the moment.

I'm not seeing Precision Time devices in the early games. Did NCAA decide not to use them again or was it simply a logistics issue?

Yes.

NCAA didn't want to pay what the PTS owner was charging them.

I'm surprised. Usually NCAA Division 1 schoolas and conferences can afford PTS, not to mention the tournament organizers, who is in this case the NCAA itself. Still, it will be interesting to see if the NCAA officials are used to working non-PTS games.

Good luck to the NCAA officials chosen for this abnormal tournament season, and may the next season be a more normal one.

Does anyone know if Dave Hall got a invite after others were sent home?

Sirmons was on the notables not on the list above. He in fact worked a game either Thursday or Friday. Can’t remember which.

Maybe you need to look at the other list or thread. Sirmons worked both Thursday and Friday.

Haven't seen Earl Walton or Mike Stephens...is it safe to assume they fell to Covid. Also who is the youngest official and who is the oldest??

Thinking Desai may be youngest and Pollard or Harris may be the oldest ???

They had a smaller group. The officials have worked more games and at least a game every day. So you have not seen many guys that would normally work at least a round. It also seems they have a lot of guys that would work the Final Four or on the cusp of working a Final Four.
