Brian Kersey deserves a shot...IMO.

Well the emails to officials working the men's tournament went out this afternoon. I personally know of 4 officials who got their emails and they are ecstatic since it will be their first to the dance.

These officials are under the age of 40, sticklers for mechanics, and constantly enforced everything that John Adams said was an "absolute." Throughout the season these officials would occasionally get some flack from the "veterans" for slowing down the game with the "two-hands on a player" or enforcing the "freedom of movement." I guess who ever was watching these officials games liked what they saw and awarded them justly.

I am extremely happy for these young officials.....and yes, they are from the West coast.
