Hurley Worry

01 title. Indiana upset them in Rupp in 2002.

This was not called a foul on Williams which would've been his fourth.

The 2001 LA Times article about how bad the officiating was against Maryland in the semis and Arizona.

We've definitely seen officials gift championships (refs called a non existant touch foul on Seton Hall in the closing seconds to give Michigan a title. Gave Duke a win over UNLV in the same fashion). But the most absurd officiating I have seen for an entire tournament was 2017 UNC. Literally carried in five of the six games.
Ouch! Memory is fading. Yes, it was ‘01 and Maryland won it in ‘02.
 
No sense worrying. Heck who knows they might not make it to tourney. Season not started. Championship game then you can worry.
