Comical these folks sway millions of dollars and CFB outcomes.

Soon to be the lead replay booth official for all Horn games in The SEC.
Even in league play U9 soccer they tried not to schedule my older son to ref his brother lest someone complain about bias…
They always do this.
Puke, SEC wanted lil bro in and they got him, conference will be screwed for decades
Absolutely no one should be surprised. This is exactly what entitlement looks like.
He didn't see a need to review the crappy spot on that last UH drive. Even the commentators were blown away.
What kind of dip**** goes to law school to beome a replay official. He should know he has to recuse himself for that game.
You know these guys have real jobs and do this on the side right?
there's a simple solution to all of this:
1. alums or formr employees of a school are not allowed to officiate any games where their school is playing
2. refs are no longer affiliated with specific conferences - there's a national pool of refs that are sent all over the country to officiate games

Wait. Are you saying thst this guy said UofH didn't get a first down and the refs just went along???

I would have thought that their last season in the big 12 would have been the opposite and the refs would be against them, I was dead wrong
Hmmmm - El Paso lawyers website is down?????? I wonder why?

Why isn't there a rule in place that officials are not allowed to officiate games from schools they attended or graduated from? Seems fairly obvious a rule should be in place to eliminate bias and preferential treatment

No, the ref on the field spotted the ball with wrong foot. Replay sip turd didn't review for 1st down in a critical time of game. I can't remember if coog's had any timeouts but one should've been called. I would've been screaming at the top of my lungs for replay. Unbelievable! Replay guy should be fired never to be in that position again. I'd like to see which tu games this guy has ruled since sips placed him there.
John Granado on Houston ESPN 97.5 radio was talking about how horrible the spot was too, and how it was reviewed by the tu law school alum... and how he should have recused himself from the decision. Granado said it very likely lost the game for U of H and hammered the replay official pretty good.
But, its the SOS, like the made-up targeting call against the Ags by the tu official in our last game with tu.
I agree that alumni of schools shouldn't officiate games involving their schools. They probably shouldn't even be able to officiate in the same conference.

Such a rule was implemented in the SWC many years ago. One of the drivers of the rule was a horrible PI in the 89 Arkansas game by an Arkansas alumnus. It was on a 4th down play that allowed UA to keep possession and go on to score with under a minute to play. The winner of that game went to the cotton bowl.
It doesn't matter what school the official attended when the conference is in charge - if the Big XII wants tu to win, a holding call here, bad spot there, PI no call on this one... it's really easy to change a game.
Get out of here with this sensible solution.NyAggie said:

Great idea but the NCAA would be against this. It would cost them money to do so....NyAggie said:

get rid of the ncaa and let the power schools form a new governing body
This, but the power 5 would have to belly up to the bar. Not sure the coast and ramifications of that.
Could you imagine going to your rivals website to defend your team having to cheat to beat a group of 5 team?

That rule was added when an arkie grad called a PI against us and caused us to lose to.....

First off they didn't add a second to the clock in that Nebraska game. Why are you making that up? You can clearly see it on youtube if you don't believe me and watch it in slow motion if that helps you. It is very clear that the ball hit the ground and 1 second was still left. It sucks that they won but when you start a thread with a lie, it just weakens your other argumentsGil Renard said:

And as far as this replay guy going to Law School there did he make the call on where to put the ball? I don't know a single graduate degree person that's loyal to their grad school. All the people I know, love their undergrad school. The grad school was more of a business decision. I know plenty of Ags that went to UT Law or Pharmacy school and not one cheers for them.

He wasn't just an alum, he was a 2-time letterman for their football team. Unbelievable that could happen.

You're right but this was so obvious. The announcers that were blowin sip even brought it up twice.

He was the replay official. At that point in the game, he would be the one to initiate a replay which he didn't even though he had reviewed spots earlier in the game. Considering this was an extremely critical moment, not reviewing whether UH reached the line to gain was outrageous particularly when anyone watching the game, including the tv crew and the longhorn radio crew, thought it was a first down.

Are y'all assuming he'd be crooked because you assume someone with an Aggie degree would be crooked in your favor?
Isn't that projecting?
This must have sounded smart in your head. The fact is, a 'sip grad cheated his ass off for his school. Is that not enough a damning picture for you?

The Nebraska game was before instant replay. There was no mechanism in the rules for adding time to the clock because the operator rolled it incorrectly. It was entirely unprecedented and happened exactly no times before or after until instant replay was put into the rule book.
That's why it was BS.

This was 2009 game
Big12 started using instant replay in 2006
Watch the replay
Also - if the call is correct (which it was) - why would it matter how they got there?
Official time isn't kept on tv, it is kept on the field. Field clock was at 0. Butterteeth lobbied to add a second, so they did. It's the reason Nebraska left the Big12.
