The taller white guy is not DeRosa. I will look at the replay to be sure, but I am pretty positive that was not DeRosa.

BTW, Doug Shows was an official I saw at a UConn at DePaul game last season. Shows T's up Ollie for being out of the coaching box. UConn won in kind of a blowout, but I never forgot him after that afternoon game I attended.

Peace

These guys for the most part are having a great game. I agree with about every call they show in slow motion. Very solid so far.

Peace

I have to agree with JRut. This crew had solid night overall.

I agree. The misses were generally minor and hard to really complain about....the backcourt call was wrong but insignificant as was the lack of a call on the running OOB violation mentioned above. One foul called incorrectly was the PC called on the spin move by #22 for UK....there was very little contact at all and defender flopped.

There was really only one drive where I thought there appeared to be a substantial amount of contact where I'd like to have seen a different angle on.

Napier shot the lights out....UK missed their FTs and really missed Cauley-Stein and his ability to back up his guards and let them play more aggressive defense on the perimeter.

Did he travel before going around his defender for a dunk?
I thought so.

I thought it was touched by the defender.

By all accounts, "maybe" two misses on the night.

A terrific job by Harris, Shows, and DeRosa - made more so perhaps by all the stuff that went on in the semis that drew controversy.

Watch one of my games, and you will see things wrong more than I would like to admit.

Two whistles were definitely incorrect (bc call after first five minutes and PC by Verne). There are a few others which we can debate.

I will agree that the crew was excellent overall in a game that wasn't easy to call. Lots of blocked shots and rebounding battles. I give them an Attaboy.

I did not love the charge that Verne Harris made, but we have all been there.

Peace

much better game than it looked. points in the paint were at a premium on both ends, no uncontested shots, a ton of blocked shots.

I also saw one team clang a bunch of missed free throws (uk 54%) neither team shot 50% from the field (uconn 41%) several souvenirs thrown into the stands (23 turnovers) and the winning team averaged 1.5 pts a minute

When Vern Harris is the referee, he always has the U2 throw the ball up.

Shows tossed the ball. He is far more muscular than Derosa, plus Shows always palms the ball in one hand to show off . He's a pretty big dude.
