couple posts I found from some years back about this guy


Official Roger Ayers had a bad week.
He was the referee involved with the 6 men on the floor issue at the Western Kentucky game earlier in the week.
He was on the officiating crew who worked the UK/UT game yesterday. He had a couple of shaky calls including a block/charge miss and Terence Jones' 4th foul on a loose ball scramble under the Kentucky basket.
But the worse call was the technical on Coach Cal from 50 feet across the floor. Unexceptable. Chicken crap for a referee to pull that one under the circumstances.
Roger Ayers might need a little "time off" to get his game together. I am surprised he didn't get a little vacation after the Western Kentucky fiasco.

Matt Jones said that Roger Ayers has t'd up John Calipari in three of the last four games that he has officiated.

Sucks

But score aint changing

[donkadonk]

I had nova -7 2nd h last leg of a 7 teamer to win 5k and they pull off a miracle to go up 8 with 3 seconds left in overtime. Then the guy on creighton takes a jumper 1 second after the buzzer that goes in and the ref counts it. Even the announcer was confused. Apparently it was the same ref that did this in the oklahoma vs iowa st game yesterday that people were up in arms over. I have never been more on tilt in my life. I may puke. I may break my computer. I may drink a bottle of vodka. I may send this ref Roger Ayers a package full of horse poop. I'm in shock. That was the biggest joke i have ever seen in sports gambling history. I hope this guy catches as much heat as possible

not over yet ... 5k .. your an animal!!!
high five to you boss

[Fidel_CashFlow]

Report that rat bastard

Guy either has action on these games or is in to someone real deep where he has to do whatever he can to effect the game, first and second half spreads.

Too bad the world is smaller now and the kind of shit he is pulling is easily exposed. He needs to be fired and investigated. Has no business refereeing another ncaa game ever again.

they need to make the refs wear a watch that is in sync with the buzzer and when it hits 0 it will vibrate notifying the ref the clock is at 0 that way the ref can look at the person shooting and not having to look at the clock at the same time,missing obvious easy calls

[Reload]

Maybe the next Tim Donaghy in the making

[USCPHILLYGUY]

One of the officials on that list is a member at my old club and I’ve talked to several times. Each conference they work for conducts an extensive FBI Background Check. They can’t even gamble legally in a casino, play online poker, etc etc etc. A top tier official will work 70-80 games a season making, depending on the conference, 3-4K per game. This is before the tournament where they are paid more per round they advance. You do the math. Nothing to see here. Just 2 bad calls.

[INVEGA MAN]

Scott Van Pelt showed at least 3 times and he cant believe they called it good

[Jayvegas420]

Definitely betting this guy's next game "in Play". Should know five to six minutes into the game who he is on

[funnyb25]

It was the dog both times as well

[Thor4140]

I have said it a thousand times but i will say it again. Why do all these bad calls favor the books? When you figure out that answer you will become a better handicapper. This is a trillion dollar business world wide. Villanova was very heavily bet tonight. Go figure.

[USCPHILLYGUY]

So I guess the Creighton player who made 1 of 3 FT w 37 seconds left which would have put them up 2 instead of a tie was in on it to

Stop it

[TheMetsSuck]

lol at the wishful thinkers thinking this score will be changed to appease some degens. Heritage immediately graded it a loss. Also, I had no skin in the oklahoma game that was this ref also made a controversial call in a day ago but I read about an article some guy on barstool who called the head of the big 12 ref association or whatever and he said that when a meaningless bucket goes in that doesn't impact the final score they do not review them ever. Don't get your hopes up guys. Onwards and up. 12 quick Founders IPA's and a 8th of some kush delivered have me feeling better. I'm over it. Gambling is a cruel mistress sometimes but this one might have seriously took the cake.

[TheMoneyShot]

There's some serious sh#$ going down with this ref.... absolutely no coincidence. Keep an eye on this guy.

Tim Donaghy never made it obvious.

This ref.... after the clock hitting 0:00 is making it obvious.

No lol more people should look into fixing.

Let’s just say he was working for a mob fixing games, they would rather have him make the right call here and kill their bet then to do something so obvious that it draws this much attention to himself. Simple stuff.

Fixing is not last second plays like the saints game, where you have to rely on 15 other factors and where the world is watching. This is just bad officiating, something that happens every day on every level.

every game Ive ever seen that a bucket was late to end the game it wasnt counted whether it mattered or not if that was the case we would have been making threads about it long before now.

[USCPHILLYGUY]

OP I feel your pain & sorry you lost but it was a miracle this game ever made it to OT.

Cant see the NCAA ever changing going to the monitor on a basket that doesn’t decide the outcome of a game.

Just trying to imagine the ref thinking “oh shit I have -7 2nd half $$ riding on this last possession (game Line was 10.5 or 11) I better count this

[nyplayer33]

Wow, call the body that oversees refs

[TheMetsSuck]

in the nba mb. college bball refs don't care enough to review meaningless buckets that have no impact on the final score. They call it as they see it and head to locker room.

like I said Ive seen late shots before and just barely late they dont count them its nothing to review really. see how blatant tonight was? a kindergartener could have seen that shot was late. how come you cant remember this ever happening? I made the thread about the Iowa St. game I never saw a replay and was watching live and saw the scoreboard light up before the ball left his hand as close as that was I could easily see it. and the clock said 0.2 and I could still see he had the ball in his hand when the scoreboard lit up.

[funnyb25]

God, Linda Cohn is disgusting. Wtf am I watching this?

[4uk4life]

Ayers is one of the dirtiest refs in college. I dread seeing his name on the list when KY plays. Same with Higgins

[cincinnatikid513]

they gotta do something, need the correct outcomes of games how can u expect a ref to watch the ball released from the shooters hands and the clock at the same time , so if the score was tied they would go to review it but since it was a 8 point game who cares

[funnyb25]

Guy is getting destroyed all over Twitter

[Sobob99]

Totally ridiculous. This would put you on major tilt. Too many emotions to deal with. I feel for ya man. Please try to think straight, and remember, it's only money, and you'll live and move on and make more of it. Don't ruin your life or even your week over it.
