I'm going to the tournament this week and I don't want to see this crew doing any game...they don't allow either team to get into a flow....

Great defensive play there and TV Ted decided to call it SUPER late after he missed the dunk. WOW

This is not breaking news but Ted Valentine is such a brutal referee. For both sides. If he makes a call there is a 70% chance it is the wrong one. He makes anticipation call after anticipation call. Just terrible

Can we please stop with the zone. I'm assuming its to keep Leron on the floor, however, they score every possession against it, essentially forcing our offensive possessions to need to be perfect.

I assume he does that to protect from fouling out Black et al, but they score AND we still foul.

There has been almost Zero flow in this 2nd half because of the officiating. I don't think they've necessarily decided the game, but they've been brutal.

It's not this crew, it's one member of the crew, who obviously believes its his responsibility to blow a whistle whether its his call to make or not.

I have to imagine other officials across the NCAA hate working with him as he constantly makes calls out of his area.

Is it just me or are these Big 10 announcers way, way to much favoring Rutgers?

I don't know if it's already been mentioned, but the "Advil" floor advertisement directly in front of/under our bench....is absolutely perfect to end this regular season!

Agreed. Hasn't decided the game, just brutal both ways.

Trent's play-making, in particular his ability to foresee how a play is going to unfold before it happens, has really evolved. Kid is gonna be mad nice in the coming years.

People like to give Alstork a hard time, but he's been really good defensively today.

I love the development of Williams and AJ lately, They seem to finally know their roles
