Yes, really... I just can't stand when people make general comments about refs and have never been a ref..... Cause if you had, you wouldn't be maken those statements... Just because VMI has 7 fouls have nothing do with it... VMI is a much more aggressive team than LU is... There is about 3 or 4 other factors.. But I just don't feel like going this topic in the game thread.. Sorry if I made you upset.. just drive me nuts when people make those statements..

I don't know about all the ins & outs of reffing & you're right that now is not the time- but I have a good friend who used to be a Big South ref & if you think that doesn't happen then you're really kidding yourself!! Refs do have the tendency to even calls out- but they don;t just make them up- they just get more or less touchy with things..

I am not going to really get into this... But trust me I am very much in the know on this topic...My main point was that it doesn't matter how many fouls one team has on them, makeup calls aren't going to be always be coming around the corner.

And the coaches complaining to refs don't have ANY effect either right??

[kingaling42]

You guys gotta love the pace of the game- VMI is only shooting 18.8% from 3 & only 29% from the field- I'd look or VMI to switch some things up on D in the second half- Duggar likes all kinds of changes- the tandem & 3 D scheme isn't working like it did in the last game..
