Fans should know the answer by Friday with the season being over and hopefully a announcement is made.
Friday?
We're going all the way, baby! There's no Burr around to call the game over too soon.
Anyone remember this:
“The Big East Conference acknowledges that two separate officiating errors occurred at the conclusion of the St. John’s vs. Rutgers game,” the statement read. “Both missed violations should have caused the game clock to stop and a change of possession to occur prior to the end of the game. Neither error is reviewable or correctable under NCAA playing rules.”
We lost by 2 to a ranked St. Johns in the Big East tourney but should have been shooting technical FTs for delay of game with 1.7 seconds on the clock. And would have gotten the ball back after the FTs to try to win it with those 1.7 seconds. OR.. they could have made a travelling call and gave us the ball with 1.7 on the clock.
St. Johns players fouled our guy, stole the ball, took three steps landing on the sideline and heaved the ball into the stands.. and that is where the delay of game should have happened. They missed the foul, missed the travel, missed the OOB, missed the technical delay of game... to me that summed up Rutgers playing in that Catholics league. I wonder if the non-Catholics in the current Big East feel that way.
I do suspect we are treated poorly by Big Ten refs.. especially in womens BBALL... but it has to be better than the Big East. Valentine made some bad calls against us in the 2nd half of our last game.. that brought back nightmare memories.
