Problem is, you can post a rap sheet on every ref that's officiated every IU game in the last 20 years. The NCAA and Conferences are in no mood to seek out newer officials so we're stuck with the same couple dozen refs that have called every tournament game in our lifetimes.

Which includes Pat Driscoll and Ted Valentine and it is a good thing that Ed Hightower retired.
