BillyClyde 68 Who will get the call for this weekend? Will the ones that called last weekend be the ones that will be called to work this weekend?
grunewar BillyClyde 68 wroteWill the ones that called last weekend be the ones that will be called to work this weekend? I asked a similar question about "pool of available officials" in another thread and this is what BNR said: BadNewsRef wroteYes. The officials for the Sweet 16 and Elite 8 come from the original 96 who worked the 1st round games. Next week each region will have 9 officials working. 3 separate officials for each game: regional semi-final, regional semi-final, regional final. That means 36 officials will work next week and of those 9 will move on to work the National Semi's and Final.
mbyron I have asked not to be considered for officiating the Final Four, since baseball season has started.
biz Might not mean anything anymore with Adams in charge now, but the last two years (2008, 2007) 5 of the 9 worked the Sweet Sixteen Round. In 2006 4 worked the Sweet 16.

Raymond GoodwillRef wroteTim Higgins and Jim Burr worked the NIT Semis last night in NYC. As did 3 officials from the Sweet 16.
refguy Based on performance so far, I think Tony Greene and Jamie Luckie are in. Possibly Dick Cartmell, Mark Whitehead, Doug Shows, John Cahill, John Hughes.
Raymond Officials who have stood out to me are Jamie Luckie and Les Jones. Tony Greene is about as steady as you can get so I wouldn't be surprised to see him there again.
refguy Ch1town wroteDave Hall, Randy McCall & Verne Harris next Monday night. No Denver bias there. 😀
JRutledge Ch1town wroteDave Hall, Randy McCall & Verne Harris next Monday night. I know the line-up for sure and those are not the officials. Peace
GoodwillRef Ch1town wroteDave Hall, Randy McCall & Verne Harris next Monday night. Not going to have 3 West Coast guys on the game. Hall has worked 106 games this season...#1 for men's officials.

tomegun Jamie Luckie is one of the best officials working. Once his name catches up with his ability he will be a final four regular. Les Jones is also solid and could get the call. Rut, is it a secret or can you tell us?
tomegun Ch1town wroteDave Hall, Randy McCall & Verne Harris next Monday night. You are kidding right? For one of those officials...him or Welmer...Hmmm
