These officials

I have been on three different high school varsity basketball staffs and have seen all kinds of refs. IMO they have an internal bias and as a game flows they go with that bias unless the other team does something to change their mind. A few big plays and consistent good play. Evades definitely has a bias going and then makes make up calls. I am not a ref fan and if anyone tells me they do not have an effect on a game I say BS
 
We've had some memorable refs in the numerous NCAA tourneys too, if anyone is thinking the refs will get better now that the Big 12 games are behind us
 
Tom Eades and John Higgins are arguably the two most inconsistent referees in all of college sports. Here's an idea!!! Let's put them on the court together.
 
If they want to see fouls, put in someone from the end to cripple Buddy Hield.
If that's the game, let's play the game and end somebody. (career, not life)

Stop. Niang got called for that same hook in Ames while Buddy was on him. These threads are pathetic after every L.

Just because you get tired of hearinbg legitimate complaints does NOT make them irrelevant - Cyclones got robbed again!

Big Twelve remains unapologetically corrupt...Eades is simply criminally dishonest, just the way the conference likes it. Don (travel) Daley is NO prize either!

PS: In a way, I am relieved, not having to watch the Cyclones get hosed ANY more (this year).

What the hell is the matter with you? Shut up, just shut up. I would love to watch ISU play against guys like Buddy every day of the week. 4 year guys like Niang, Ellis and Hield are what makes college bball freaking awesome.
 
Eade's field of vision is totally blocked on Niang's last foul. The other ref saw nothing. No call and our ball could have made a difference. I will say that OU is a very good team and BH is special
 
It's so typical ISU for us to have a generational type player and even he can't get a call to save his life. I hate ******** about officiating, but it really is ridiculous.

You mean Hield is special and OU is average at best?
 
Travel on Burton?
Travel on Nader?
Push off by Buddy
Foul on Buddy by Monte

Seems like he is getting the Lebron treatment

Very bad officiating. Sloppy 18 TO's by ISU. 4 free throws given to OU in technical on Prohm and Intentional on Monte (both were iffy but fair). We lost by 3. A week to rest and tighten some things up.

Bring on the dance. Let's Go State!
