I thought we got SEC refs in the away game vs Big 12. Not much difference though.
I can already see how this is gonna end.
I don't believe this. He has a pending lawsuit in which he's named (not suing) Cal. How can he ref a UK game with that conflict of interest?
In the same way that the NCAA gives favoritism to Duke.
I get what you're saying but this is a legal matter now. No faith in any organization these days though.
Pretty sure you are lying. Where does one hear rumors about who will referee a basketball game in 4 days?
Buddy, wait till the NCAA tourney starts. I bet he gets assigned one of our games.
If he does and Cal doesn't raise ****, I'll ffing quit watching the sport all together.
And coming from someone with 56 posts. I agree. No way Johnny boy refs this.
I don’t want him in the same state much less he same arena. I don’t usually advocate trolling of refs but if he sets foot in an arena with us I believe it is a Uk fans duty to douse the man in soda and empty cups. Metaphorically speaking of course. Wouldn’t want to get sued. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
Higgins officiated West Virginia's loss last night. WVU fans feel very much like UK fans do when it comes to Higgins. Higgins treats Cal and Huggins--who are dear friends--about the same. Huggins has been very vocal about referee's---Higgins' in particular---overpacked work schedules. I would be surprised if he officiated Saturday, as the outcome would certainly outrage one fan base.
It’s an ideal situation for ESPN. They get to broadcast UK getting rump pumped in front of a hostile crowd, and Higgins gets his “revenge”.
We win that game and I’ll be partying like it’s 1999!
No. But I’ll be ecstatic if we win convincingly (or even just win in Morgantown.
Wouldn’t be surprised if he did the game and gave us the favorable whistle. I can see it now. Higgins swallows whistle on a big block to win it for the cats. Now he looks totally non partial. They put him on a game in the ncaat. Then he screws us when it counts in March. That’s how this garbagr works.
Probably looks even farther down at mountaineers than uk

I turned off the UCONN, Wisconsin and uncheat game because I knew the fix was on. I've never done that before during the uncaa tournament.
Never have blamed the refs before those three games.
This year, either refs are just completely inept or they are fighting back for one of their own. Never seen a season with so many obviously 'incorrect' (corrupt?) calls.
How there is no foul, at HOME, on PJ at the end of the Florida game, I'll never know.
I don’t believe you for a second.
I don’t buy that.
If they do they know he will get ripped all game, he will use that as evidence as to why his suit against Matt Jones should be moved to Nebraska. He will try and bait Kentucky fans with questionable calls to ensure this happens.
