[RUJMM78]

Don't think I'm not gonna ask!

Tim Higgins was a great guess speaker with lots of humorous tales as a referee.

 

[Scarlet Shack]

Like tim Higgins, Another clown i used to jaw with on the sidelines....not going to miss him

Don't worry. The NCAA will bring Jim and Tim back for our first tournament appearance since 1991. Can't leave anything to chance.

Sports writer to NCAA tourney director: "But Tim Higgins can't see!"

Director: "Not exactly. He can tell that Rutgers is wearing red. That's enough."

Sports writer: "I grasp the intent of the assignment now."

Director: "Dook will be in white by the way."

 

[Underdogs88]

Good news. He was bad at his job.

 

[Rutgers1976]

He left his office 2 seconds before quitting time.

The last 40 seconds was a terrible job by the refs.
