Interesting...I don't understand why coaches are allowed to get away with this kind of crap...there is a West Coast Conference school whose men's team has done quite well the last few years, but whose women's team hasn't caught up to that level yet. The women's coach has pulled a few doozies lately. 1)He went nutso on a call, was T'ed by one of the officials, and after the game taped an autographed 8x10 picture of himself to the officials lockerroom door with a note attached saying "Something to remember me by, since you'll never work in this conference again." WCC commissioner did nothing...2)Was ejected from a game a few weeks ago, refused to leave, had to be escorted out by security, the entire time screaming and dropping profanities at the official who gave him the second T. Goes to locker room and calls Supervisor and proceeds to leave a profanity-laced message on her answering machine, which she plays for the commissioner - who, again, does nothing.
I really don't get it... |

It certainly doesn't excuse Fox's behavior, but I believe that part of the problem stems from the fact that Nevada had Gracey in 3 of its last 4 games.
@ Utah State 79-77 OT loss Not vs. New Mexico St. at home (win) vs. Idaho @ WAC tourney (win) vs. Utah State @ WAC tourney 79-77 loss in regulation BTW Gracey also worked the WAC tourney championship, so if Nevada had made the final they would have had him again. This is part of the problem with the conference tourneys. People see too much of each other. |

I gotta tell ya, Nevada, a statement like that is just plain sad coming from any official. Freaking sad! |

Sorry, Scrappy, but if that's your thinking also, then you're part of the problem too. |

While Gracey had some crucial calls in some Nevada games this year, including that mess with Hawaii, I never said that he was part of the problem.

For the record of the three officials who worked the other semi, (Ruben Ramos, Bob Staffen, Rick Batsell) only Staffen had Nevada in the final week. He was with Gracey on the March 1 game at Utah State. So why not use either of the other two? BTW the box score on the NV/Idaho game on ESPN is wrong for the officials. Yahoo has it right. It was Gracey, Dixon, Hernandez. |

Just like the adage "Nothing good happens at 3 a.m.", nothing good happens when an irate coach follows officials out of a gym. Wonder what would happen if some guy who was NOT earning 6 figures acted in that manner...

"We need him to focus completely on the kids," Groth said. "It's really bothered him. This has become a little bit of distraction for him and we've tried to take it off the table."
WTF's fault is that? ![]() BTW, ACC official Les Jones worked the UNC-Duke regular season finale, the UNC-FSU ACC qtrfinal, and the UNC-BC ACC semi. There were no incidents in those 3 consecutive UNC games played over a 7 day period. ![]()
