    The three officials whose errors marred the end of the St. John's-Rutgers Big East tournament game have voluntarily withdrawn from the rest of the tournament, the conference said.
    The three officials -- Jim Burr, Tim Higgins and Earl Walton -- were criticized for failing to officiate until the final buzzer of the second-round game at Madison Square Garden.

    'That black cloud is going to find you'

    A year ago, Tim Higgins said there'd be days like this. Dana O'Neil recalls her conversation with the veteran Big East official -- and how it became prophetic on Wednesday when his crew missed two big calls at the end of St. John's win over Rutgers. Blog


    St. John's beat Rutgers 65-63 on Wednesday. But Rutgers should have had another possession when the Red Storm's Justin Brownlee, after stealing a pass from Rutgers' Gilvydas Biruta, traveled while celebrating and stepped out of bounds with 1.7 seconds remaining, according to the ESPN broadcast.
    Brownlee then hurled the ball into the stands as his coach, Steve Lavin, was walking down the sideline to shake the hand of Rutgers coach Mike Rice. By that time, the officials had left the court.
    Of the game-ending sequence, John Adams, the NCAA's national coordinator of men's basketball officiating, told ESPN.com's Andy Katz: "Not officiating to the end of a game is unacceptable."
    In a statement, Big East conference commissioner John Marinatto said the officials withdrew "in the best interests of everyone involved -- including coaches, student-athletes, game officials and Big East member institutions."
    "With three days of competition remaining, it is our hope that everyone will now focus on our outstanding teams and the exciting games ahead," he said.


    Mike & Mike on Officiating Mess

    ESPN's Fran Fraschilla tells "Mike & Mike in the Morning" that the referees stopped officiating in the last seconds of the Rutgers-St. John's game. Listen

    ESPN's Jay Bilas says college basketball officials need to be held accountable for their mistakes. Listen



    Rice, in a phone interview Thursday on ESPN's "First Take," said the three officials demonstrated accountability by withdrawing from the tournament. He praised the quality of referees in the Big East in general and the three referees in particular, but declined to say whether he would have liked to see them continue to work through the tournament.
    "There's accountability there. They didn't have to do this," Rice said of their withdrawal. "I'm sure besides my 13 players and my staff they probably feel just as bad about what happened."
    "They wanted to hold themselves accountable and they did what they did," he added.
    Marinatto acknowledged the errors in a statement released after Wednesday's game.
    "Both missed violations should have caused the game clock to stop and a change of possession to occur prior to the end of the game," Marinatto said. "Neither error is reviewable or correctable under NCAA playing rules."
    Adams, who is in charge of selecting and managing the 98 officials for the NCAA tournament, said he hadn't seen the video of the final seconds of the game but would discuss it with Big East coordinator of officials Art Hyland.
    "And then we'll notify the guys sometime Sunday if they're working or not," Adams said.
    Adams said that officials are selected, much like teams for the NCAA tournament, on the basis of their body of work from the season, not just one call or one game.
    "One bad call doesn't knock a guy out of the NCAA tournament," Adams said.
    Marinatto called the league's officials a "very dedicated and loyal group of professionals." Last year, Burr worked the Big East semifinals and Higgins the championship game.
    Burr has worked 16 Final Fours, the first in 1985, the last in 2006, and has done seven national championship games. Higgins has worked 10 Final Fours, the first in 1988, the last in 2004, and has done four national championship games.
    Walton has never worked a Final Four.

        Will do Bean. I actually make my money in the NBA so I'll chime in when I feel strongly about something. But I love college hoops especially the BIG EAST as you might have guessed. Can't wait to see what you guys have on tap today.

          Leaning towards taking the points with Miami. Their only losses in acc play that were by 10+ points were both to Duke so when they loss they still keep it close. Northwestern is the same way but Ohio State has been on a tear wining the last 4 by 19+.

                                                    Good luck in here today fellas, I am struggling to figure out the early games. I think Xavier wins but not sure about the 8. I like Georgia for sure, think I will pass on Mich and Illinois. I really like Philly and Portland tonight in NBA.

                                                              Bama/georgia is going to be a good game with bama just beating the dawgs but both are still on the bubble with georgia getting the nod so far because they have no bad loses. On the bama side the have had bad loses to st.peters and providence and seton hall .. The last two are good team that when they get hot can give most teams a run for there money but today i'm leaning the bulldawgs....what do you guys think
