All coaches know they have to careful what they say about the refs. And, to be fair, conferences should protect the refs. They are simply enforcing the rules. And basketball is a VERY difficult sport to enforce. 4 or 5 guys splattered on the floor. Which one do you blame and punish for it? It's not that cut and dried. I thought The Phog refs got too friendly with Kansas late in the WVU game, no so much earlier on when WVU got its 10-point lead. I'm with Huggins on this: Call it the same on both teams and in the first and second halfs. But sometimes it takes replay over and over to come up with a conclusion so split-second decisions are tough and refs are human. I still rankle for the phantom call in the St. John game with 5 seconds left and the game tied. The ref guessed, because the player stumbled, that WVU tripped him. Replay showed he wasn't touched at the time he stumbled. The call at a critical time so it had a greater impact than a call in the first 5 minutes of the game. Meanwhile, I want to watch Texas Tech tonight and see what WVU will face on Saturday!

I mean coaches can’t disparaged refs after games so he deserved it.


but we can and it’s free. The refs sucked but probably didn’t cost WVU the game. When you shoot like that you don’t deserve to win. That was a pathetic performance. We all can agree WVU can’t win games shooting like they did against Kansas right?

Huggins knew what he was doing. He is trying to create an Us Against Them mentality with the team.

Then he can say, If you want to win this game you have to play hard enough to beat 8 against 5.

Sorry, but your lead in is, to me, nonsense.
If the game is beyond the ability of those chosen (and PAID0 to officiatre it, then fire them and hire others who are capable of both understanding and enforcing the rules as written and not according to thsier own whims. Concentrate more on training, evaluation, reviews, and success at doing what the rules spell out as operational protocol. Pure and simple MANAGEMENT is required. Currently we allow excuses for poor performance as is shown in this post. If those being paid to officiate an athletic event cannot be consistent, and legal then they taking money under false pretenses. They are frsuds and have no reason to ever be assigned to officiate another such contest. We would never allow such actions and behavior in most industries. Rules broken or overlooked in multiple industries is reason for immediate termination if not criminal actions. Why do we allow such exceptions and protection for those doing this job?

Poor shooting
Seemed to work out ok vs okla. state. But also, osu couldn't make a shot. If osu were in a boat they couldn't have tossed the ball in the water. 1 of 20 on 3's.

WVU had more to do with OSU lack of scoring than OSU shooting poorly. Go back to Turd town.

Seems like every time he gets in trouble, ejected, etc., is at Kansas. The one year weren't they at one point like in the 30s in free throws and we were at like 4?

So you could referee basketball and never make a mistake, no matter how much they paid you? Yeah, right. And you can walk on water, too? Yes, refs blow calls. It is IMPOSSIBLE for the refs to get EVERY call right in every game. Judgment calls are that way in life, too. The only perfect person was crucified. Surely you're saying you're co-equal to Christ, only with a whistle in your mouth.

Never make a mistake?? Do you even hear yourself or are you just so inbred and jealous of every person with a functioning brain that your full of rage and jealousy. F'n fudgepacker. 30 plus to 4 is not a mistake. He always gets in trouble just there is not a mistake. Your mother not aborting, THAT is a mistake. And I never said I would never make a mistake what kind of retarded response is that. And even if I did say it here's the difference buttlicker, I don't get paid to call the games fairly, those refs do, and they dont. Theres a difference between A mistake, and years worth of one sidedness. I'd love to keep educating you, but one thing I learned in 3 and half years of working with mentally handicapped adults is dont over do it. Just make sure you keep track of all your incontinence and BMs for the nurse and eat your Graham crackers and coffee ok tool?
