Stepping up
Just heard that one of the officials assigned to Notre Dame-Louisville couldn't make it. Conference got a guy who worked the Marquette game to go. Got a rent a car and drove to South Bend and is working the 4 OT game, maybe going 5 if ND scores.

NCAA Official double dips
Well John Gaffney got a nice little pay check. He works a game at Marquette this afternoon and gets a call to go work Notre Dame game tonight. And he gets to work 5 OTs (still not over), basically another half of basketball. He certainly earned his pay checks today.
Peace

Considering that many of us do about 5 games at $25 a pop with running clock, I thin a check with probably $2500 each would be OK to work both games.

Two NCAA D1 Mens Games in one day?
How common is it(if at all) for an official to work two NCAA d1 mens games in 1 day. John Gaffney of the Big East did so today/tonight. He worked DePaul/Marquette in the afternoon and then worked the 5 ot game between Notre Dame/Louisville. Supposedly one of the assigned offficials could not get to South Bend due to the storm out east. Here are links to the box scores for each game.

Reason: Chmaged Game Location from Chicago to Milwaukee |

Officials: Pat Driscoll, John Gaffney, Alfred Smith
Officials: Ed Corbett, Jeffrey Anderson, John Gaffney Good for John. Not ideal but when 1/6 of the country is under 2 feet of snow...stuff like this can and will happen. |

Supposedly? Sounds like you don't want to believe what actually happened (per ESPNs' bottom line....official Michael Stephens was stuck in Providence, RI). It's approx. a 3-3.5hr drive from Milwaukee to South Bend, IN. (the trick is getting thru/around Chicago without traffic issues...and surviving the NW Indiana "snow-belt"....on your way to South Bend). |
