Earl Walton

I really wish I had taken live video in the stadium of the entire sequence on that Langborg ejection. I trust the Big Ten has footage of it from the RAC cams for when they evaluate what in the world happened on that play. So that they can see the interaction between the officials with Walton repeatedly calling additional conferences between the officials. Hopefully they debrief all 3 of them to try to get an accounting of that egregious mishap. Granted I was observing from afar but it certainly appeared to me that Earl Walton was the one that forced the flagrant 2 call on the rest of the crew. And then told Chris that he had “no choice” but to eject Ryan Langborg for a basketball play.

This guy needs to be ejected from referee ing Big Ten games.

Hey Earl, we can't even tell if the hit was in the stomach or the nuts.

OK, but hear me out...

He clearly was the ref pushing for the call. It doesn’t get called that way without his persistence. Is he the head official of the group? If not, he should have been stood up to.

I’m sure Gragg will have CCC’s back and will make his voice heard at the B1G office.

No joke, if you heard three voices could you pick out Gragg???

He would be the silent one

Very suspicious. It’s this type of BS that makes people claim the fix is in. He should not be a Big Ten ref.

I have noted very uneven ( is that the most pc word) officiating against the Cats this year. There should be repercussions for this. Hopefully we singe Indiana, Langborg is rested and ulrimately face Purdue with a crew who doesn't call a foul just because our centers breathed on him

Any game that the officials are whistle happy is a negative for NU.
