Good stuff. I honestly don't get why criticism of officiating is deemed so taboo for anyone except for the NCAA or conference leadership.

I realize it's not the easiest life traveling so often but these guys are still collecting a nice paycheck. Accountability around officiating is extremely ambiguous. Look no further than seeing some of these guys in the tournament who just do a poor job.

Then schools or coaches have an issue and its a no no with penalties for saying something. Again these guys aren't volunteering they are paid. Technology continues to expand and yet it hasn't improved things its simply shined a light on deficiencies and shown how inconsistent even video review is handled at times. It's almost as though they are getting to the point where video review should replace most of their job at this point...but not because of the tech, instead because of the poor job they are doing.

More transparency on managing their performance is desperately needed at this point. Would be a great purpose for the NCAA to focus on fair play in this manner.
