Women's college hoops drives me nuts

I swear there isn't a sport anywhere that has worse officiating. At least the sports I watch. It's a total travesty to the sport how bad the refs are. I don't know how Coach Wailz contains himself. How he doesn't get thrown out with multiple t's is a miracle. How can it be so bad in the big tournament?

The officiating matches the quality of play. Unwatchable.

Coach needs to put a stop to a certain set of tactics by one of our players. That is unnecessary

How can that be a dead ball technical? It's ridiculous! First thing it wasn't a dead ball. Moore's contact to the girls face was as she was being fouled. They called the foul on the USF player for going over Moore's back. And secondly, how could Moore know her hand would hit the USF player in the face when her back was turned to her? Moore's arms flailed upward in the air after being fouled and falling to the floor. If her hand would have landed on the girls shoulder, there wouldn't have ever been a review.

And they called this a dead ball technical foul on Moore. USF got two FT's and made them both. Got the ball and scored two points. Louisville gets fouled and USF gets four points. Once the Lady Cards are eliminated, I won't have a reason to watch anymore women's basketball. Until the officiating improves big time, I just can't watch.

I think Hines Allen wants to be the ladies version of 'Trez.

I have come too have a great respect for womens BB, having a niece that plays D1 BB, they work at it just as hard as the men. One thing they have down pat is shooting fundamentals something very lacking in the mens games.

I think it's just that most people are so used to seeng the physical, show boating style the men play. Most of these women simply can't do it.

If this is the player in question then not sure why she should be held to a higher standard than Trez. This team plays with a lot of emotion every game especially Hines and Hammond. Shoni and Angel were the same way. Its a different game and needs to be viewed that way in order to enjoy it. Cant come in looking for dunks and lightening quick guards. But I agree that if the NCAA wants womens basketball to grow they need to get a hold of the questionable officiating. It gets really old and sometimes obviously corrupted IMO

It's more like watchinge Ivy league, and Byu and Gonzaga type teams soft and very good basic fundamental shooting basketball .

Corrupt it is how can you be the home team but playing on your opponnets home court? Your set up too lose

I am sure you know why UL is playing on the road. I don't think any contact was made on that flailing hand. Looked like a Chris Jones move to me from SF player.
