He's scheduled to be the ref when UK goes to Gainesville.. I can see that going very well for us..
Maybe he'll be a bit subdued in light of the USC debacle. It'll be a Mexican standoff initiallyHe's scheduled to be the ref when UK goes to Gainesville.. I can see that going very well for us..
This. I didn't think they were announced until game day. I guess the refs themselves know in advance, so maybe there's a list somewhere.I didn't think we knew who the officials were for the games until a few hours before tip?
I thought MJ said he wouldn't be officiating any more of our games?
I don't remember him saying Poy was done for the year. Where was that?Yep. I wonder what is up? Didn't MJ also say that Poy was gone for the year? If so, I am very glad he was wrong about that one but hope he isn't wrong about this one!

He never said it. He only stated that there was fear that his injury might be severe enough to cause him to miss the rest of the season.Posted here. I didn't see it firsthand so take it with a grain of salt.
As much as I dislike the NCAA the officials assigned to an SEC game comes from the SEC head of officials. He has a pool of officials and their availability is based on who is free that day. Many officials contract with different conferences. I wish someone would stick a microphone in front of Jake Bell's (Head of SEC officiating) face and ask some hardball questions.About par or under par for the course with the ncaa, should tell us all we need to know about our suspicions regarding agendas for both ncaa & the officials.

Well before you know it i guess they will assign Pat adams the florida game also
This happens all time with refs.One would think that Sirmons is smart enough to realize he has to be on his best behavior?
SnickersYou couldnt read about 10 threads down to see the other thread about Sirmons and Florida?
No he did not say Alex was out for the year . He might have said " possibly out for the year " .Yep. I wonder what is up? Didn't MJ also say that Poy was gone for the year? If so, I am very glad he was wrong about that one but hope he isn't wrong about this one!

To Sirmons this is just another game for him, just like the last one he called. Officials don't dwell on games like the fans do. They know themselves when they miss a call or get it right. You can't officiate games and let the fans get in your head. I doubt very much that he is doubting his call in the SC game and has probably forgot about it by now.
It is the nature of the job for fans to be upset about some calls, because they are bias and the officials know that.
So to say they realize they have to be on their best behavior goes without saying. They know that. I would think the coaches and players has to do the same.
