In a football game that I watched, a guy caught a pass for a td, and pointed to the sky, thanking God but also acknowledging his dead brother.......he got a personal foul on that.......refs are arrogant little monsters who want to control the game as if they're important, and it happens in all sports.

That's taking the concept of not being polite to point to a bizarre conclusion.

I have been officiating for over 45 years. This idiot has such a power trip and such an ego that for him to change the call would be like losing his manhood. Which he should lose anyway

She said the magic word, she wins stupid prizes...

@@weatherchaser1166 - Wrong. The first technical foul was earned. The 2nd was an overzealous ref. On the 2nd technical foul call the closest ref to the HC didn’t blow the whistle. It was said douche bag who called the first who just happened to be more than 40 feet from the HC. Come on now 🙄

The technical for walking onto the court to confront the official was BS. Yes, it was a legitimate T, but was given at the discretion of the official. Many, many times, coaches walk onto the court during play stoppages to speak with the officials w/out being given a T. The coach had every right to know the reason for the T. Another sterling example of an official making a BS call (T for pointing at teammate to say “good pass”-not taunting or excessive celebration).

@@joecool2125 - ✊👍🙏

The two T's on the head coach were the only ones that were actually proper in this situation. You can't come onto the floor to argue.

Having officiated over 2000 games at all levels other than pro, being a head coach for five years, and an athletic director for a decade, far more technicals need to be thrown. What was said and how it was said are both relevant. The problem is that parents and parent-coaches have continued to whine and complain their way more and more that more ended up being tolerated and the boundaries just kept being extended to what is deserving of a T. There’s a ridiculous amount of swearing on the court now because it’s become common language and compounding that with helicopter parents living vicariously through their kid’s sports has led to less people willing to coach and especially officiate. Any of you nay sayers, go officiate for a straight year every weekend and see first how easy it is and fun it is to have “know-it-all’s” in the crowd yell constantly at you including calls that don’t exist like “over-the-back.”

@@brettslaathaug4704 Thank you sir. Everyone here is thinking with their emotions. Us refs have rules to enforce. It doesn't matter if you or me like it or not - the rules are the rules.

@@brettslaathaug4704 well said. I'm an official in another sport, and if people don't start showing some self control, there aren't going to be enough officials to cover all the contests.

@@brettslaathaug4704 Completely disagree, having been an ump and a ref for over 20 years myself. The first technical was just plain wrong, the ref blew it, period. Pointing at a teammate to thank them for an assist is very common - use your head, what would the player be doing pointing at an opponent on the other side of the court as taunting? When they got together, you can clearly see them acknowledging they blew it. So, all you do is go over to the coach, and say, "hey, yeah, I blew it, it wasn't taunting, my bad". Would have diffused the whole situation and been over with. Instead, he gives a quick unnecessary technical to the coach and escalates the situation. Too many referees fail to acknowledge mistakes, and it just escalates the situation.

@@brettslaathaug4704 Amen!

yes misapplication of the rule, and not understanding the "intent". i hope Ohio Valley Conference deals harshly with this crew, since the partners did not rectify the situation

K9AF: Excellent post to point this out. Yes, indeed it's very common to thank your teammates for setting you up to score. . This was very, very unfortunate along with those refs being totally inept! They all should be sent back to ref school and banned for the rest of the season.

I wish I was that coach. I would have taken my team to the locker room and we would hit the road. And if the NCAA didn't like it we would settle it in federal court. The only way the NCAA will ever address this bullshit is if someone gets crazy and it makes it all worse. And I would tell the NCAA if that Stevie Wonder dick head is ever assigned to another one of our games, we wouldn't even take the court. We would leave the locker room and hit the road.

Facts!

Not sure why you would just assume the description reflects reality. Especially when the person posting the video is affiliated with the Murray State team and has a vested interest in presenting a narrative favorable to Murray State.

Yup, good training for when they tell you to get on the rail car…. For your safety.

@@Platoface yikes. A little leap ya made there......

Yeah. Class move. She has 2 teams watching to see how to properly react. Also it makes the officials look even worse doing the calm walkout. It takes away all there reasoning later when they claim "she was bonkers bezerk and out of control.....WE HAD to remove her."

@@thomasmartin7425 rofl. Hard to pretend she’s being classy after she ran out and berated multiple officials.

Why would you lose your job for doing something dumb?.. Had she complied with the sideline rules she wouldn't have gotten T'ed up. Know the rules.. fight within the rules- that includes staying off the court when you have a disagreement. The Lady isn't "humble" .. she can't seem to control herself and stay out of hot water.

You're living in the past. There's to many idiot coaches for that to happen anymore.

@@mikebarat1950 : Not sure how that negates my comment, for me and those who are not idiot coaches, but....Okayyy.

You're right, the best refs are the one you don't remember at end of the game. It's not matter of negating your point, It's a matter of pointing out how childish coaches in general have become in this day in age.

that's hard to do now, especially in end of game situations. Had a game this season where I made a call on an illegal screen that negate a game winning basket. according to the coach, I cost his team the game. Never mind that his team missed at least a dozen FT, never mind that they missed a number of 3 pointers, or had a number of turnovers. this one call that I made cost him the game.

@@bradwilliams6691 Some of the coaches and especially the parents are out of their minds.

You say that like now. Let's see what happens when you're put in a position of authority, and people start charging after you. I'm sure many will start saying the same thing when you try to maintain control.

@@scott1564 let me guess, you're a bad ref also. Congratulations.

@@easterlake actually, I was a pretty good one. What you are is someone who has no idea what you're talking about, has never done anything like it, and doesn't know what it takes. You prove it by ignoring my comment and posting a third grade (if that) intelligence level "insult" on me. You really don't get it do you? You proved my point with your absurd statement. Have a nice day.

@@scott1564 ......insulting someone by commenting...”ignoring my comment and posting a third grade, (if that) intelligence level “insult” on me”, really proves their point more than it proves yours. Perhaps you may want to reconsider....”you really don’t get it, do you?”

@@scott1564 A essential attribute to being in a position of authority is observing, listening, and communicating. If the fact pattern presented in the description is correct. This Ref made a poor judgement call on the first T on the player. Okay, it is human to make a error, either way it is understandable that the coach will have some questions at the very least the coach must defend her player. A ref should have enough situational awareness to understand this. You then listen and explain, if the coach continues and is disruptive. Then sure hit them with a second T, but that did not appear to be the case at all here. I coached HS baseball for 5 years, umped another 5, and walked a tier putting felons to bed for 12., all three required communication, there was none of that here. The ref or umpires job is to facilitate the game, not be judge, jury, and executioner, this ref was laying the law down, not his job.

And 2 of them were there because they thought it was men’s basketball

There were more ball girls there than fans.

@@mandyhenderson7883 I would think that you as a woman would have more respect for women's college basketball Mandy. Sure... it is not nearly as popular as men's but these young ladies work hard and play their hearts out on the court. That should count for something.

Not funny at all Marshall. You obviously have no respect whatsoever for women in any sport.

Not all of us Officials are like that!

It concerns me greatly, that you remember that game.

Its just a ref having a bad day. These guys/gals don't get paid much, and honestly make mistakes. It's not a power trip, it's being tired. Think of it like a parent that gets home from a 10-12 hour day at work (exhausted) then get's attacked by his/her children for money/complaining in general. The parent just shuts down after so much stress/banter. They're only defense is to ground the child/throw technicals.

Bed call

What did the other two officials do wrong?

BOBBY KINGHT !!!

Which way? Slamming a phone at the scorers’ table? Throwing a chair across the floor? Trying to dump a red into a garbage can?

@@2themoon863 D: All of the above

How little you know.....go try being a ref

Ref was justified. If the OTHER coaches were physically RESTRAINING the head coach, that's a bad look. She doesn't belong on the court. She was wrong. Period.

@@Spec62 Yes, I'm sure that palm on the forearm was the only thing keeping her from going on a killing spree. She was just standing there, menacingly!

@@nobogiedr I am a ref and I agree with the OP; the first T was never explained to the head coach by the calling official...he just reports and walks away. Whether the HC was going to agree or not, the calling official could have very easily walked over to the HC and explained why he called the T on #4. Then, he only exacerbates the situation by calling the first T on the HC. The second T on the HC was chicken shit and should have been called by the official standing right there not from one of the other two standing at the other foul line. This is a good example of bad game management and a crew that did not do a very good job of communicating and trying to mitigate the situation. The HC was only looking for any kind of explanation since no one seemed to understand why the T on #4 was called; it is something that she never got. If you want a better angle, take a look at this clip: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a91miNuq277Qgas.html There is no way #4 deserved the T; this is something that happens in every game more than once.

This is a hot take.

Exactly.....automatic ejection

It was on the player that hit the three. As she turned to start running back on defense she pointed to the point guard who gave her the assist to acknowledge the good pass. The referee gave her a technical for taunting because I guess he though she was pointing at the defender she hit the shot over.

I we would have seen chairs flying and injured refs. 😂😂😂

It's women's basketball... So, yeah, empty gym.

@@theburninator3202 let me tell you, for a men's game at Murray, its SRO just about every game. MSU has a fine history of BB. womens sports have lagged behind for a long time, even with Title IX

The last two are not understandable. When you are an asshole blind POS making armature calls that decide the game and no one will correct it, you need to be told. He is lucky I was not the the coach. I would have whispered in his ear "After the game, go straight home and protect you family. Someone is coming by to see you Nazi boy" Then when he told anyone what I said I would deny it and sue him for defamation. Then get a restraining order and he would not be calling any more of my games. The NCAA failing to correct this type of behavior is going to result in instant replay just like football. All sports are sick of shit refs. Except football. There we expect it because well, the fix is in.

@@partybusexperiance3289 This kind of bullshit is why we don't have good refs

And I'm sure you know more than they do. What would that be based on, exactly?

Some refs are on power trips and just want to hand out technical fouls. One time Ted Valentine had a fan ejected because he said something to him.

The official who called the first technical he no business on a basketball court! Other officials should have destroyed his credibility by correcting idiotic call. From a former official for over 20 years. If you don’t enjoy officiating you need to get out of it! That referee from his expression doesn’t enjoy it!!!!

@@brettslaathaug4704 I respect your opinion and some what agree. For I too was a coach and athletic director in secondary education 24 years as the head football coach also coach girls basketball. The most vicious animal of all AAU basketball so. I totally understand what you you're saying. But my perspective is this. It look like the coach came to him and was questioning what was the situation about. And he just gave her a quick technical foul. Respect goes both ways! Addressing profanity I've been on the sideline on Friday nights and yes there is profanity but also I've heard officials use profanity as well.

1st T on the coach was for coming out of her coaching box. by rule, that is automatic.

Thank you Cameron

Different refs different standards. And the argument shouldn’t be. They get away with murder so let’s legalize murder. It should be let’s crack down on murder.

That the taxpayers paid for!

Relevant, how?
