You Are Right

The SEC officiating is always bad. I remember the recent Arkansas & Kentucky baseball series. The BBN (Big Blue Nation) as Kentucky basketball fans like to refer themselves. Has been all over every Calipari related Tweet or YouTube video in mass. Predicting early NCAA Tournament exits, unexpected home court losses to pitiful opponents. Just doom & gloom predictions galore. I went lightly at a few of them . Talking about Pope never winning an NCAA Tournament Game. I also had a little pic for them, I will post below. However I do not like internet arguing and I soon became very turned off with them after a week or so. I just stopped reading comments under Calipari vids or Tweets. Calipari did get a highly recruited big man in the transfer portal from Tennessee. However the next two big men that Calipari went after went respectively went to Kentucky & Louisville, somewhat stolen in the last moments. Big men are the prize in college basketball. Nolan Richardson had three when he won the natty. They know Calipari stacking up big men would be potential natty material. Calipari took the old Louisville basketball coach as an assistant. You see who is taking his big men. Anyway back to baseball with Kentucky & Arkansas with the SEC umps. I just watched one of those games. I get too exited about the junk as I will say next to watch many of those games. That ump behind the plate had two different strike zones for Arkansas & Kentucky. The Kentucky pitcher just needed the ball near the corner of the plate to get a strike call while the Arkansas pitcher needed to throw the ball right down the middle of the plate. Use to watch a lot of baseball. Never saw such a blatant job of bad umping. Getting that after all that Kentucky trash about Calipari. That fan base wanted Calipari gone when Arkansas hired him. You can punch up BBN YouTubers all calling for Calipari's firing after the NCAA Tournament. That is SEC officiating for Arkansas.I have seen TD's called back due to penalty on the bad Arkansas football team until it is expected. Those TD's called back have decided a couple of those games. My point is the officiating can always get worse. It could get so bad a school fan base would demand leaving a conference. The way this revenue sharing is going. Revenue sharing could also cause conference exiting by schools on the back burner in the P2's. ** Edited by WarHog38 at 5/23/2024, 3:43:32 AM
