That's what the officials at the command center say. In the Pac's explanation, they say he called in to express his opinion only, but they thought since he was their boss that they had to follow his opinion. I guess it could've gone down like that, but call me skeptical.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something dirty is at play with Pac-12 officiating. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After watching Pac 12 officiating over the years, and seeing it bite the Pac team or higher ranked team a large number of times, I am disposed to attribute it to incompetence. I would be fine with the guy losing his job over this, he probably should.

You should see how the UC’s operated when the Cal States tried to get approval to add doctoral degrees in applied fields. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevada Convert Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Although he can certainly be eclectic, I really started to like Leach when he gave Adam James what he deserved at Texas Tech and then sued his poppy, Craig James, for defamation. LOL!!!! Now that’s my kind of guy. Adam was the most spoiled, lazy, dishonest, manipulating little cancer that caused problems in any locker room he infected. He couldn’t hack TT baseball and had almost daily pity parties, so then he decided to go for football, and the same thing happened. “Adam, you obviously want to cause problems and don’t want to practice, so go sit in the shed for 2 hours until we’re done with practice.” LOL!!

After watching Pac 12 officiating over the years (maybe not as much as you) I am not disposed to attribute it to incompetence. P12 officiating is systemically dirty. Has been since at least the '90's. Larry Scott knows this and is a prolific liar. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a difference between making bad calls and a phone call coming into the command center from a third-party. This thread is talking about that phone call, not their competency on the field. 1 Quote The World Needs More Cowboys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
