I was at the Butler-Providence game this year and Cooley should have been whacked. I'm happy to see him finally get one. Dude rails the officials like no other.

Horrible call, one of the worst so far. Cooley was mad at his team, and Ogelsby (sp?) had no business even paying attention to the huddle.

I'm of the opinion that NCAA officiating gets worse and worse every tournament. So far this tournament has been an absolute joke when it comes to officiating.

Uh, no. Not even close. I've seen many Providence games and Cooley is on his team more than anything. I've seen many, many more coaches that are far worse

He is a huge supporter of referees. He has said at his camp that he thinks referees are underpaid...

For the textbook definition of: "Lack of Officiating Common Sense" look no further than Terry Oglesby's technical foul he assessed the Providence coach.

Sure hope any official who does that ISN'T working during the 2nd week of the tournament....

I was really hoping that the crew would get together and "discuss" this. From TV there doesn't seem like anything precipitated this.....

Sportsmanship is supposed to die because these games are important.

Good for the official. He threw a chair on the floor. He deserved it.

Have at it, fanboys.

If Oglesby works another game in this tournament it is a shame. The fact he's working at all is a shame. He is awful.

Uh, why? The referees are in charge of everything on the court. Why would the referee conveniently ignore the chair thrown on the floor?

Admittedly my sample size is pretty small (the Butler game, and this one) but both times I've seen him pumping the refs for calls and being disrespect. Looks like a trend to me.

So what? There are tons of two-faced coaches who are awesome off the court but insufferable on...

No, just no. If Oglesby wouldn't have been butting into the huddle its a non issue.

I know that in my association, if I whacked a coach for knocking a chair over because he was mad at HIS PLAYERS I would not be working the rest of the season. Absolutely brutal lack of common sense there

Absolutely brutal lack of common sense by Cooley for throwing a chair towards where the official stands during a full timeout? Totally agree.

Intent doesn't matter.
