Welmer out...

I'll never be a men's official, but I'd take a Welmer on his 25th day in a row before a lot of other officials. That guy knows how to run a game.

And his assignors and schools like the way he does it, too.

It wouldn't seem that the people assigning post-season games do though....

So? He gets well over 100 games in the regular season by people who like how he runs a game. You think he's going to change to work 3-4 more?

From everything I've read, he's not exactly thrilled with the prospect of going down as the best ref never to work the Big Dance...

I know, but I think that ship sailed years ago. At some point you realize you are never going to get that Final Four or that HS State and you move on from it. I've gotta say, I've just about reached that point in my so-called career. I'm mostly OK with it, except when I'm not.

Especially when he can get the same 3-4 more in the NIT.
