My old pal up at the ACC has some good news
Nov 28, 2016, 4:15 PM
|

Looks like Duane Heydt, the official that caused quite the stir during Clemson's loss to Pitt, won't be the head official for the ACC Championship Game as he was telling people. The white hat will be Jeff Flanagan, generally regarded as the best official in the ACC. His most recent Clemson game was the win at Wake Forest.

Head ref isn't the only one who can throw BS flags.

"As he was telling people"...?
So was he bragging that he'd get to screw over Clemson again?

Why would you NOT have the best official at the ACC CG each year? Seems to me you assign the crew that grades out highest each year and you should not rotate them each year.

This decision was made by the league office

Without any interference from CLEMSON. I can't believe they made the call on their own! Earth shattering for the ACC.
I made the comment last week, and many of you agreed, that the WF game was the best officiated game I have seen in several years. When the players decide who wins, its a good thing!

the ones you don't even notice in the game because they aren't unfairly influencing the game.

Maybe the ACC has come to the realization that it stands to lose a lot of money if Clemson loses this game and they don't get a team in the CFP and so they realized that they better take the "chicken factor" out of the game and not let him referee it so that both teams have a fair shot to win without the interference from the zebras?
Come to think of it, that's probably not what's happening here.

Doubtful.
They are losing a ton of money by changing venues to boycott shemales pissing in the wrong bathroom.

Heydt was bad, but what about the back or field judge?
Nov 28, 2016, 4:32 PM

At GT and against Pitt, there was one official in particular who threw several PI flags from way down and/or across the field. Has his performance been addressed?

Thanks David. My questions or comment would be that if Jeff Flanagan is regarded as the best official in the ACC, why would he not already have been selected by the conference as the head official for the conferences most important game of the season? Looks like the biggest game would have your best official, IMO. Glad they got it right, for once.

This is nice. Of course best in the ACC is still leaving some room at the top because to be blunt ACC refs are generally not very good

That is great news, but the perfect season we should have right this second but don't bc of his bogus BS calls is lost for ever. Taking his white hat just isn't enough, his loss of job forever is the only satisfactory punishment that could fit. After all, that loss will be on our record forever, 11-1 not 12-0!!!
