The NCAA DI Committee selected the following 10 officials for the 2013 Final Four, including three rookies:

» John Cahill (Albany, NY) [11th Final Four] — Big East and SEC Conferences
» Mike Eades (Princeton, WV) [First Final Four] — ACC and Big Ten Conferences
» Tony Greene (Atlanta, GA) [Seventh Final Four] — SEC and Big East Conferences
» Karl Hess (Forrest, VA) [Sixth Final Four] — ACC and Big East Conferences
» John Higgins (Omaha, NE) [Fourth Final Four] — Big 12 and Missouri Valley Conferences
» Les Jones (Chesapeake, VA) [Fifth Final Four] — ACC and Big East Conferences
» Randy McCall (Highland Ranch, CO) [Fourth Final Four] — Mountain West and Pac-12 Conferences
» Doug Sirmons (Virginia Beach, VA) [First Final Four] — Big 12 and ACC Conferences
» Mark Whitehead (Denham Springs, LA) [Fourth Final Four] — Big 12 and Missouri Valley Conferences
» Terry Wymer (North Baltimore, OH) [First Final Four] — Big Ten and MAC Conferences

In the wake of Pac-12 Coordinator Ed Rush's controversial remarks and resignation, no official primarily associated with the Pac-12 was selected to work the NCAA Men's Basketball Final Four.

  1. Questionable "jump ball" call at the end of the Wichita State-Louisville game deprived Wichita State of a chance to tie the game down 3.

  2. They'll say the officiating was poor in the championship game, but ey say hat every year. Who cares, the right teams won the game.

  3. The referees in the NCAA Mens National Championship game were Big East Refs (Louisville is in the Big East Conference. There were NO Big 10 refs!!! The refs for the championship game should NEVER be in the same conference as the teams in the championship!!! Because of this, Michigan actually won and is the true National Champion!!!! Louisville should not have even been in the championship game because the refs cheated Wichita State in favor of Louisville in the semis. The refs did the same thing by cheating Michigan in favor of Louisville. Louisville's Hancock actually fouled out but the refs gave one of his fouls to another player - 1 of many cheating bad calls by the refs!!!

  6. Michigan worked hard, beat the best teams and earned the right to be in the national championship game. They also earned the right to play in a fair, unbiased national championship game officiated by unbiased refs from neutral conferences!!!!! The NCAA should be ashamed of the way this game was handled!!!!
