[QUOTE="alaskaillini, post: 1608115, member: 531679"] No but he had to sit a lot in the Baylor game when we had non-B1G refs (he had 7 pts, 4 rbs and 4 fouls in 18 min). But for Giorgi having a great game, we would have really had our butts handed to us. We had to use BVD last game to spell Giorgi and Kofi due to foul trouble, so we are not immune even with B1G refs. I am sure our guys can adjust to tight calls. I am sure the coach will have them prepared for this. And I think that we will have an opportunity to adjust through the first couple of games. But having to have Kofi sit with fouls means that Giorgi is going to have to be passive on defense or risk the same problems. Guess I still have PTSD from 2005, but I think we beat anyone in the country if our bigs can stay out of foul trouble. [/QUOTE]
