AROUND THE COLLEGE NATION
January 27, 2005
By Jonathan, SCS.com Editor
We saw this past college football season how bad officiating can be. That sport has turned to instant replay in some conferences in order to get more calls correct. College basketball officials are also allowed to use replay monitors in certain cases, but just last week, we saw that instead of getting a call right thanks to the monitor, the refs only caused increased confusion. Arkansas visited LSU last week....[MORE]

By Jonathan, SCS.com Editor
The University of Memphis and Coach John Calipari continually bill the basketball program as one of the nation's best and the premier program of Conference USA. While they may become the league's best once Louisville, Cincinnati, and others leave for next season, UM is clearly a step behind the elite powers both in the country and in the conference. A feeling of superiority seems to shadow the Tiger....[MORE]
