Rutgers' Referees

[Knight Time Fan]

In addition to tracking where the PAC12 referees worked this season, I also listed the Rutgers referees for each game.

The burning question is, who did RU games the most?

The answer is Felicia Grinter, Jesse Dickerson, Sue Blaugh and Lisa Mattingly - they all worked 5 Rutgers games.

Denise Brooks worked 4, Billy Smith, Bryan Enterline, Bruce Morris, Cameron Inoyue, Frank Steratore, Laura Morris, Mark Zentz, Michael McConnell, Puilani Spurlock, Tim Daley, Roy Gulbeyan and Tina Napier all worked 3.

4 ref's worked 2 games and 25 referee's worked one game.

FWIW, only Gulbeyan and Inoyue worked in the PAC12.

I also tracked former players Jamie Broderick and Linda Miles.

Jamie did 53 games in 7 midwestern mid-majors. She did the most games in the MVC and MAC, but not by a lot.

Linda worked 50 games in 11 conferences (one in the B1G and 4 in the ACC), but the largest single conference was the MAC.

Neither of them did any conference tournaments.

Nice work Doug.

Do you happen to have a list of our record in games done by these officials?

Napier is the worst...she from Clockgate lore

Bryan Enterline is no gem either!!

What is the name of that ..... who screwed us in the Northwestern game in the B1G tournament? He also did the final game. I hope he's not at Storrs. If he is, I'm waiting in the bus. Don't want to be arrested for violence.

As long as we don't have those HORRIBLE officials we had when we played Northwestern in the B1G tourney I'll be happy.

I have no idea. The 2 males that did the RU Northwestern game were Mark Zentz (also in the old BE) and Michael McConnell.

Neither of them did the B10 final, the male in that game was Bob Trammell, who was the 2nd ref in Clockgate.

Unlike someone else above, I don't generally think that Tina Napier is a bad ref, although she was that day at Tennessee. Enterline isn't a bad ref either, but his style of calling games will never be in Rutgers favor, not because he doesn't like us but because of the type of fouls he tends to call regardless of who is playing.

In the few games that I saw, the least Rutgers friendly ref (again, by style and odd calls) was Jesse Dickerson. Works a lot and a lot of high profile games, but I've never been impressed.

And no, I have no idea who was the ref when we won vs. lost, and I'm too lazy to try and figure it out.

As mentioned above, there was more than one bad ref in the Northwestern game. I'll not name names but the female ref got upset at a longtime loyal Cager and asked security to come and get her. A fellow fan, not RU I think, invited this person to come and sit with him so they couldn't find her. Security did come down (they stood right by me and looked in the place where our fan was) but couldn't find her. I don't think she was so bad and I was thinking what she was saying.

Which is why I might choose to sit in the bus.

OK - someone asked - but I rarely blame the ref's
The referee's in Rutgers Losses were:

Sue Blauch - North Carolina, Iowa, Maryland at home
Jesse Dickerson - Maryland away, North Carolina
Bryan Enterline - North Carolina
Lisa Mattingly - Tennessee, Ohio State, at Northwestern
Dee Kantner - Tennessee
Felicia Grinter - Michigan State
Denise Brooks - Tennessee, at Maryland
Roy Gulbeyan - Maryland home, Michigan State
Tim Daley - Iowa, at Northwestern
Tina Napier - at Maryland, Michigan State
Laura Morris - Ohio State
Frank Steratore - Ohio State
Bruce Morris - Iowa
Puilani Spurlock - at Maryland
Beverly Roberts - at Northwestern
and the final game: Gina Cross, Mark Zentz and Michael McConnel

I don't really think this means anything, but as someone asked.

Just saw Bryan Enterline working the Minnesota - DePaul game. Hope that means we don't get him tomorrow.

Where is our good friend DeMayo??? Maybe hanging out with his buddy up in CT.

Anyone know if referee trends is something that CViv has an assistant study/track? I'd imagine that if it's known a certain ref calls a certain type of foul more often, or whatnot, that it would be a useful piece of information to relay to the players when we draw that ref for a game.
