    I think it’s an ok crew. To me, Ayers is the best in the business. Padilla can be suspect, at times.

    I don’t know any of those names yet. Let’s hope I don’t remember any of them.

    Green did a number of our games. Most infamously our loss at Georgia. He also did our UConn game so I guess he isn't on Hurley's good side. LOL.

    No Pat Adams. No Doug Shows. Sounds good to me.

    I don't think that is right. Just another example of AI gone wrong?

    Who are the Final Four refs? Duke-Houston, Florida-Auburn get top officials | Sporting News
    Somebody is
    This article says the refs mentioned in this thread are reffing the Houston-Duke game

    AKA do you know your source on this? Im trying to find something on the NCAA website to cut through this cause right now there are two different pretty big sport news articles saying two different things entirely.

    Doesn’t really matter who the refs are. Complaining will still occur

    My understanding is these are all outstanding humans, excellent family men, and I have nothing negative to say about them.

    They all pretty much suck. Some suck way worse than others though.
