WVU is playing today so he might show up there just to punish Bob Huggins for complaining about the refs so much this year. Although I think he is officially a Big 12 ref and they aren't supposed to call their own conference in the tournament, right?

Pat Adams called Alabama’s game and Sirmons called Oklahoma’s. I think they may assign 1 familiar referee, not sure what the current protocol is.
 
It would not surprise me to see him call the Wichita State game.

Let’s hope he doesn’t call any SEC games. The league is 2-6 in NCAA Tournament games with him on the whistle since 2011. But the 2 wins came in the 2nd round, so . . . .

We had Linsday last night, but usually he's pretty good. However, most of the questionable calls/no-calls were from him, so I'm curious if he's having trouble discerning between the SEC regular season and the NCAAT.
 
What did you all think of the officiating in the Boise games yesterday? I didn't see Gonzaga's game but I thought they were all pretty decent. Though I was LOL at the refs in our game swallowing the whistle at the end when UK led by exactly 5 points.

Hope we hardly notice the calls next game. I hate watching freakin free throw contests.

The conference part is no longer true.

We had Lindsay last night. And you are close, it's Marshall not West Virginia.
