alex1fly Posted February 18 Posted February 18 It would be cool to see a video mashup of Angels' questionable calls. I have no idea who the guy is but sounds like it's a thing.

There's a reason he ends up reffing so many NCAA finals. Not really. Fred Ambrose also worked a ton of NCAA finals and he totally sucked. Edited February 19 by burgerman typo
Interviewed_at_Weehawken Posted February 19 Posted February 19 (edited) I happen to used to know Angel a little. Prob not my favorite guy, but he's ok. I do know that he is considered one of the best refs in the nation. They do have a ranking system. I am a ref and his positioning and mechanics are excellent. There is a lot of subjectivity in the sport, and I think that is part of the issue. Also keep in mind that most fans and coaches don't know the rules. I know for a fact that the Flo bros and Ben Askren do not understand NF criteria, because I have heard the talk about NF multiple times. (For example Antrell Taylor vs Downey at CKLV). So this likely adds to the problem. The Sealey no-takedown call was bad. Edited February 19 by Interviewed_at_Weehawken

Wow, have NOT heard that name in awhile. Wasn't he the official of the Churella vs Hendricks Final ? I was there 20 some years ago and the arena was going crazy !
