Are you saying the Lead should never call GT?

He is saying that his opinion is worth 2 cents.

Or a good old "STFU" from Dan.

Absolutely.

Because I point out that Kitts is having a bad weekend, this is where you go personal? Interesting....

Blow the whistle, look to make sure your partner, the new trail, is still way back in the play, he doesn't have a whistle, and then count the basket. Usually pregamed.

I agree with your thoughts....however these are, theoretically, the best officials in the league working in a 3-man crew @ the Big Ten tourney.

For once, an accurate post - if for no other reason than you can effectively read my username. You've just proved yourself more accurate than Mike Kitts was this weekend.

Your two cents on Kitts is, well, irrelevant. Kitts worked more B1G games this year than any other official. Appears the powers that be (including the coaches) want him on the floor. And Valentine and Wymer, too.

If Bill Veeck were alive today, I imagine he would revise his famous quote about Spring to say:

"The true harbinger of spring is not crocuses or swallows returning to Capistrano, but the sound of howling NCAA basketball fanboys."

You never did point out the rule that says it's legal to take two steps after the ball is gathered.

Don't know why, but I always think he looks like a turtle

perhaps because he runs kind of hunched over with his back bent and head & neck extending forward.
