CNN Markbreit video
|
Nice video.
|
I'll probably be listed as a heretic, but I never really thought he was the officiating god many seem to think he was. Maybe it was because his time was before I started officiating and really looked at what they do, but back then I always thought...Markbreit, eh.

I remember Markbreit as referee of the 1971 OSU/Michigan game where a late pass interception sealed a Michigan win. Thom Darden made the play although Ohio State screamed for intereference.
Woody Hayes went nuts on the sideline and literally tore up the down markers. Markbreit's flag throw seemed to be has high as the last row in Michigan Stadium. |
That's an impressive trophy room.
I didn't think Markbreit was any great shakes until I found out how hard this job really is and saw that his body of work is as good as anybody's since Jim Tunney. BTW, why isn't Tunney in the Hall of Fame? |
