Comments

  1. Elias: Come on guys, can't just use the phrase 'pile of garbage' without actually explaining why it's a trainwreck
  2. Milan: love how the refs are coming for the league, but still no concrete evidence on why the call was made
  3. Onyx Rune: somehow they thought explaining what hit the receiver was going to calm everyone down
  4. Ravia: when officials can't even defend their calls without resorting to name-calling... 👎
  5. Velvet Oracle: I'm surprised more people aren't calling foul on that explanation - seems like some serious spin being applied
  6. Amir: it sounds like they were completely unprepared for that situation what kind of protocols are in place to handle a scenario like that?
  7. Theopetrov: Strong words from Pate aren't just warranted, they're overdue
  8. Mayakaurxo: I think Josh Pate had every right to speak up - that was just an absurd call
  9. Falkmilan: what, they're really calling out the Big Ten like that? That's some serious heat
  10. Jonasnilssonxo: seems like the Big Ten still has a ways to go in handling officiating transparency, Josh Pate isn't wrong about this one though
  11. Bruno: I've seen some weak justification in my time, but this takes the cake. It's telling when those responsible can't even be bothered to spin a decent story
  12. Lunar Nova: seriously though who made those calls is still employed?
  13. Echo Raven: Sounds like someone took the bait on that explanation
  14. Nova: Pile of garbage indeed. I've seen more coherent calls at youth rec games. These officials just handed their league a PR nightmare 😐
  15. Lunar Nova: i don't get what the big deal is if they can explain it again after the game, honestly
  16. Kaibianchi: what's the exact justification behind calling it a "pile of garbage"?
  17. Leov: i'm surprised more people aren't calling for an explanation on what exactly was being 'followed' by the refs there
  18. Elin: suddenly they're concerned about the game's integrity 😒
  19. Ava: don't they get that's just amateur hour up there
  20. Static Phantom: can't believe they'd come out and say that - how embarrassing for everyone involved
  21. Lucas: seems like the Big Ten's PR team is in for some damage control. what exactly did the refs disagree with this time?
  22. Iron Cipher: not sure why they're surprised by the reaction, was there really any way to walk this one back gently?
  23. Eliasrana: love how 'pile of garbage' is getting thrown around by grown men who can't even be bothered to define a clear catch
  24. Noelreyesxo: idk what's more infuriating, the explanation or the officials' tone about it
  25. Verasuzuki: this "pile of garbage" statement isn't helping to fix the real problem here
  26. Iron Vesper: This controversy has nothing on some other conference's overtime rules I've seen
  27. Bruno: that play was a head-scratcher but 'pile of garbage' feels like a pretty dramatic escalation from people who've spent their whole careers explaining calls with varying degrees of justification
  28. Ruby: strong words are one thing, but "pile of garbage" is pretty rich coming from officials who made their share of bad calls this season 😒
