Pretty Charlie Sierra response - and actionable as business slander. I’d take that case...
I am a Tarheel fan and I haven’t heard anything around here about bad officiating during the game. The foul stats are almost equal.
There were stinky calls but that’s the ways it goes sometimes...
I am a huge, loyal UK Fan, born and raised in the Buckeye State, now living in the Hoosier State, by way of the Bluegrass State. LOL But, yes, I do “bleed blue”, and I do think the ‘”rooferee” made some bad calls during that game. HOWEVER, I think what these so-called “fans” are doing to this rooferee are totally out of line, and an embarrassment. Shame on them. Having said that...GO CATS!! There’s the hope of next year and GO SOUTH CAROLINA this year!
Ashley Judd?
Basketball fans have been commiserating about losses for decades. . . . Must not let the “snowflake” mentality invade this traditional competition. . . where someone wins, and someone loses. Ask the Tar Heels about their last game’s outcome at the last second.
It is said good teams overcome their coaching. Great teams overcome the officiating.
I didn’t watch the game & not really interested in college sports much anymore. This behavior is uncalled for, wrong and thoroughly disgusting.
I am surrounded by U of L and UK fans in this neck of the woods. If I found any one of them behaving like this I would read them off in no uncertain terms.
Patrick Henry would be so proud...
So good to have grown ups using social media
This insanity is despicable
He was pretty damned bad especially the first half it was obvious who he had coming out of that bracket. I have seen some bad refs but this guy was unreal.
Give the KY basketball program the death penalty so the fans will really have something to whine about.
It was a great game and both teams played as hard as they could. There are no losers in a game like the UK-NC game. I was cheering for UK but I didn’t really think the undersized Cats could outdo the larger Tarheels. The game came down to one shot made with .3 seconds remaining. Congratulations to NC and if the UK players really want to win an NCAA Championship then they can return for next season. They’ll be unstoppable. Meanwhile, the UK sore-loser snowflakes need to get over it. And leave the referee alone.
This is exactly what is wrong with university sports as revenue generators for schools.
Whether the ref made a bad call or two is irrelevant in the REAL world!
It’s a GAME, people!
To try to destroy someone’s livelihood over a GAME is beyond the pale!
