To qualify, you really should have to be in either your first year of officiating or live in California, but being a student in the stands works just as well too, Rich.:)

What a freaking joke. Is it possible to slap somebody upside the head through the internet?!?!

If it were, you'd have an awfully sore head!! :p

Gotta love these guys who come on here to tell us how bad the officials are who were chosen to work the biggest college tournamnet in the nation...what a bunch of losers.

Andy, I'm sure someone has a website with a consolidated list but I just used the good old-fashioned keyboard along with my cutting & pasting skills while perusing the box scores on ESPN.com. :)

BTW, my friend I was telling you about a while back, his son played RB for Phoenix Community College. Was National JuCo player-of-the-week for one of his games.

Apparently someone forgot consult UConn and Seton Hall's coaches because that incompetent Rutecki dude officiated the NIT championship game last night. :rolleyes:

If I were Wally Rutecki, I'd feel pretty good because his assignment to the championship game of the NIT is a clear statement that his boss is behind him 100%.

If you look at the list of officials assigned to the final four of the NIT, they are all on the roster of the Big East. It looks to me like they were assigned by or with the input of Art Hyland of the Big East. If you look at the other eight officials, five worked the second weekend of the NCAA and two, (Burr and John Higgins), would have if they were eligible. Of the nine, Rutecki is the least experienced, so it would be surprising for him to be put on the championship game unless somebody wanted to send a message.

A couple of years ago Referee Magazine did a small Q & A with Art Hyland and it stated that he assigned the officials for the NIT. This was prior to the NCAA buying the NIT but it seems that Art is still the assignor for the tournament in the fact that the Big East officials were well represented.
