I think with Driscoll and Stephens the game could get very physical....I think that is great myself. They were mentored by Jimmy Burr. I'm hoping they put the whistle away...

Nobody wanted the game? I have a hard time believing that officials at that level are shying away from marquee assignments (that pay about $3K to boot).

Why? That's just an empty assertion without additional information.

I would have took that game, so I do not know who qualifies as "nobody".

Just repeating what I've heard. :)

The two man-eating coaches might have something to do with it...

I do not remember Adams ever saying much either way about the officiating at the Final Four. He might talk about situations, but not the overall job of the officiating.

Peace

No. I meant we haven't heard who's replacing him. The new coordinator.
