Texas Aggie Looks like the buddy system is going strong in the NCAA? You don't say. There are these types of problems in both men's and women's.
Rich Watching the same official work 3 consecutive conference championships in 3 nights was the only thing that really stood out to me.

If so, yeah, that would be a problem. But if 3 different supervisors wanted the same official, that's something different.

Raymond AremRed wroteIt's slightly different in women's where one woman controls several major conferences. Curtis Shaw, Bryan Kersey, Bobby Dibler?
michblue I can only imagine Kentucky fans right now seeing John Higgins work Game 1 tonight at the Final Four
Multiple Sports I could care less what Big Blue Nation thinks....John is one of the best we have, I'm glad he is there !!!!
[deleted] I'd bet a crapton of money that JD told Teddy to tone things down during the end of the season and the tournament, I've watched two of his tournament games and he does not seem like the "TV Teddy" of old with the excessive signals and such. He wore Nike's with a giant white swoosh during the regular season but check out his kicks tonight -- he colored them in.

And this is how the new ones are made for the most part (or can be bought that way more regularly). Something tells me they do not care what shoes the guys have on for the most part either. Peace

Good shoes. Finish line. I have a pair.
michblue Completely agree with the comments about John Higgins being one of the very best in the business. My comment post about Kentucky fans was sarcastic. I could care less as well what Kentucky fans think.

Referee24.7 I was hoping Keith Kimble would've gotten an opportunity - really damn good official. . . Also, was crossing fingers that Ratstatter would've finally gotten his shot, but that game just killed it for him. . .unfortunate. . .

He definitely got that message.

Nope, I saw a closeup on the broadcast and they were clearly colored in with a Sharpie. I know they sell the 2017 Air Max in all black but Teddy wote the ones with the white swoosh all season.
