Last Ref from MVC now in Big XII?

[BradleyJD]

John Higgins sure does get around. Saturday did the BU game. Sunday did Illini OSU game. Monday did the Kansas-Texas A&M game in Texas. Wonder where he will be tonight?

I saw him on those games as well. Not a bad week when you make 800-1600 per game.

Where in the world is John Higgins??

Ill guess he is at Waco for the Baylor game.

We had Higgins twice last week, both ISU and UNI. We'll have him again during the MVC Tournament most likely. He's one of the better officials we get.

Mike Sanzere on the other had, well, I never know what he's going to do next...other than tell me what the Yankees next big move in free agency is going to be...

apparently Higgins is an Omaha native and they talk of him over on the Creighton board

I would take it. It's still a ton more than I take home.

And it's college basketball. Beats the heck out of a real job!

Could that be why his dad made such a bad call during the Creighton-BU game 2 seasons ago in St.Louis, The one that M.Salley made a basket that should have counted and T.Higgins came from the opposite side and almost half court and disallowed it and gave him a one and one.

Is Tim Higgins really his dad? They've both been active the same amount of years (14) and have done virtually the same amount of games.

WOW! Higgins did us Saturday vs. N. IA. Then went to Champaign to do the OSU vs. The Illini. Then he was off to College Station for the Kansas VS, Texas A&M game on Monday.
I have also watched him do 3 Pitt games this year.
So he does Mo. Valley, Big 10, Big 12, and Big East games.
Usually the better matchups. He must be high on the pie chart!

And I agree, I figure having Pollard ref our games is worth 5 pts. to the opposition!

He is indeed. He has done 90+ games in each of the past 2 previous seasons.

There should be Vegas lines on whether or not a Higgins does the game your betting on.

The good news is ,you don't pay for your travel.They give you a fee equal to airfare and how you get there is your choice.
