Scott Hable👣

Not sure why @EvCoRadio has left early from @UnSportsESPN now. Thinking maybe another obligation today.

@RoccoMiller8 Why did the ref tell him that he can't talk to somebody from the NCAA committee? Is that against tournament rules and protocol?

More clarity: x.com/i/status/20373…

John Calipari gets a technical. That was following a series of complaints to many folks near the Arkansas bench, including WCC Commissioner Stu Jackson of all people. Now Calipari is applauding the officials in a sarcastic manner as AZ hits 100 points with over five minutes left

@StaceyDales Just found out that Wisconsin won the game in OT, 64-61, to advance to the semis with a 16-17 record and get to play Monday on ESPNU in Wichita.

@sctthbl That’s actually insane! Good share👊

@StaceyDales You want unreal? I've got one for you. WBIT QF in Madison. Wisconsin trailed Harvard, 54-46, with 46 seconds left in regulation. Badgers went on a 10-2 run to tie the game, hitting a 3 with 10 seconds left to send the game to overtime tied 56-56. CRAZY!!

@RefObserver17 Not to mention that around 40 points were scored before the first foul whistle happened. Might be a track meet.

Bert grabs the first whistle for a foul at the under 11 minute mark. Officials and viewers dream! Great start.

Tremendous early game flow in San Jose. Still haven't used U16 Media TO at under 11 minute mark. Lot of good offense and shots, free flowing. Few whistles. Officiating clinic and dream thus far. Tremendous start. Gone almost 10 minutes without a whistle. @RefObserver17 loves it👍

@naija2capeblog Would you like it if you were Scott Foster and a player criticized you to your face about how you officiate a game and questioned your integrity? No, you wouldn't and you would do the same thing. Refs don't tolerate having their integrity questioned by any player whatsoever!!

@ESPNNBA @espn Scott Foster hitting the eject button faster than my remote during commercials 😂 Naz Reid was just asking questions and boom gone! Meanwhile the Wolves still pulled off that insane OT comeback. Refs gonna ref, but that was wild. Who else saw the pool report? 👀

Naz Reid receives a technical foul and gets ejected in overtime vs. Houston.

@notthefakeSVP @MattBarrie BREAKING NEWS: Sources confirming that North Carolina has fired men's basketball coach Hubert Davis tonight.

Now @notthefakeSVP has to fill FOUR hours of @SportsCenter to make up for this ending in a sweep.

For those who are watching or listening to @UnSportsESPN : No "I'm Over It" at this time (7:45 am ET) today. Pat Costello on vacation. Iman Shumpert in studio instead with the crew.

@PaulVentrales @RefObserver17 You're disrespecting the ref and showing him up with the sarcastic clap, man. He was bitching at the refs from the start like he always does. Do you think the refs are over it with him at some point? Yes, they are and they had enough of it.

@RefObserver17 From a sarcastic clap?? If you’re going to say that you have to be assuming words must have been said prior. There were no words, clapping and then T. That’s the evidence we have.

That is pretty weak from Gene. Don’t like that. Easily justified T.

@dandakich Were you ever called for a technical foul as an assistant coach in your day? Come on man, it's an NCAA rule all day that assistant coaches cannot argue with officials! You know better than that! @RefObserver17 knows the rule and he explained it in the post.

@RefObserver17 Why? Who the hell is some 2 bit official that he decides who gets to speak

Frank Haith, an Assistant on Texas A&M staff, was issued a Technical Foul during the last TV Timeout in OKC. Roger Ayers whacked him. I’ve said on here many times… Head Coach can talk to the officials and argue. Don’t want to hear anything, much less arguing, from an assistant.

@RefObserver17 Sounds like Roger either didn't like the way he talked to him or wanted no part of him talking to him to start with. HC needs to remind the assistants not to argue with the refs and that he will discuss any calls with them.

The Head Coach is permitted to argue and disagree as long as it’s done respectfully. There is no reason nor need for an assistant coach or staffer to be arguing with game officials. Sit down or coach your team. Love that Roger is setting the tone early. Tempers going in OKC

Can someone out there please explain how is it possible to not have air conditioning in a basketball arena for an NCAA tournament game when the temperature is over 80 degrees outside like it is in Iowa City for the games involving Virginia, Georgia, Iowa, and FDU? Inexcusable!

@msmallmon Here's why Wisconsin lost to High Point in the NCAA tournament. Their defense sucked. They did not stop them worth a damn. High Point made shots. High Point wanted to win more, while Wisconsin took this game for granted and got caught looking ahead. There you go!

@awfulannouncing Good one there from Nate.

@RefObserver17 Producers in the truck need to get in their ears and tell them to keep their minds on the game out there. People are not watching the game to hear them tell stories, they want to see and hear them call the game.

I’m a huge fan of Anderson, Vitale and Barkley but this is not working very well. It’s actually a really painful listen.

@PatCostello20 While you're watching the USA trying to beat Venezuela in the WBC final, TGL semifinals were on ESPN. Your two semifinal winners listed below. Boston wins tiebreaker over Atlanta for 3rd and 4th place.

NOTE: If you're watching TGL on ESPN right now, here's why the first match of the finals next Monday is on ESPN2. ESPN has a women's NCAA basketball tournament 2nd round game in the 9 pm ET slot, so TGL coverage has to be on E2.

BREAKING: Field of 8 for the College Basketball Crown tournament just revealed on FS1 on "First Things First: OT". 4/1 Oklahoma-Colorado 8 pm ET Baylor-Minnesota 10:30 pm ET 4/2 Stanford-West Virginia 8 pm ET Rutgers-Creighton 10:30 pm ET

@DewittWrightSr @cwdarney Was probably letting him know that he is not supposed to be celebrating and taunting the opponent on the court. That was a warning more than likely.

@cwdarney This was odd. 🤔

The ACC should be embarrassed how badly refereed this game is. An utter disappointment and a disservice to the players.
