Just curious if you're a disgruntled D1-radar official that may have missed his chance?
|
Yep...you got me!
Another post focusing on me. |

There is no defense for what they did. However, if you are an official, your self-interests are apparent by your cheerleading effort to "throw the book" at officials Stuart, Stephens and Hess. Officiating is a business that is not fair. Some guys get a ton of assignments and have the rope to make mistakes where for a guy just breaking in, it could be a career ender. It is not fair and never will be as long as there is one person holding all (or most of) the power in each conference.

Let's turn this discussion into a learning opportunity, yay?
Let's say I had my way and all HC's and AC's had to pass a thorough rules test in order to coach at the college level. Does this situation fall in the correctable error category? And if so, until what time could the officials correct it, if requested by the B HC? (And for those who don't know one of the two rule sets, the applicable rules read identical for this scenario.)

I'd close the thread as a worthless expenditure of hot air, but quite frankly I'm really entertained by it.
BTW, I loved John Adams's response. He gave the OP more attention than he was due, IMO. |
Yeah, you always close threads that do not meet your standards or liking and then block people simply because their opinion is not of yours...glad you find it entertaining.
Adams' response was typical just as I thought it would be. I was surprised he even replied. At least he READ what I had to say...OUT! |

The learning point here, other than the obvious mis direction on OT jump ball is that when the ball became dead one official immediately recognized what had happened an the ball should have been given back to the team in control as the goaltending is an inadvertent whistle. Or am I missing something?

Did Someone Say Old School Three Times ???

On the other hand, is Old School trying to make a comeback with a new username? |

Really, you've got to lighten up. Do actually think that these three officials haven't already heard from Hyland about this? The coordinator gets a DVD of every conference game, the officials each get one upon the completion of the game. You mentioned in an earlier post...."Karl Hess can't teach me anything at a future camp....." If you've attended or are thinking about attending an NCAA 'observation' camp, to get into or move up in college basketball officiating, you might want to rethink your career advancement strategy. |

All posters who have received any kind of time out since we took admin/mod duties are currently able to post. You haven't gotten personal with anyone, which is why you are really of no danger of being placed in a time out. Yet. But threads have to serve some purpose -- you being entertaining won't last long, so I applaud the poster who tried turning this into a learning experience for others here. Maybe we can move in that direction. |
What you don't seem to understand is we did read your letter, and the substantive points were addressed.
1. It was a mistake. (we agree.). 2. It was a travesty. (we disagree) 3. They should be disciplined. (they probably will) 4. Newer officials would be fired (doubtful). Whether they're disciplined by the Big East will have little bearing on whether they're on tv this weekend. Probably even zero bearing. You do realize that a condescending form letter does NOT mean Adams even read your dissertation, right? |
