Answer 1

Wow. That is really a tough question. It comes down to this: Has Hess ever given a technical to someone for "giving him the business?"

Answer 3

Never really had a huge problem with Ron Cherry, but as far as referees go he is probably not as good at his job as most of his peers. Hess is an A-hole, there is no comparison.

Answer 4

I really don't think the ACC football refs are making bad calls on purpose. They are just underqualified, incompetent and unprofessional.

Hess is on a power trip. That is far worse IMO.

That saaid ACC football officials better clean up their act because it is pathetic.

Whoever did the Miami game this year. That crew wasnt qualified to ref a pop warner game.

Answer 6

Ron Cherry is pretty good at what he does. He gets a lot of criticism for the calls from the other guys on his crew. How many of Ron Cherry's calls do people have a problem with?

Answer 10

Everyone criticizes Ron Cherry and rightfully so, but John Flannagan( the dude who wears glasses) is much worse than Cherry. He consistently screws FSU

Answer 11

Generally, the football coaches are anti FSU which makes no sense. we have the best chance for a NC, so if anything they should help us. that is what the SEC does.

in hoops, duke and NC get all the calls. in most years, there is at least a logic to it.

officiating in hoops is much more subjective, so Hess gets a partial break. i'm going to have to say the footabll officiating is worse.

Ron Cherry amuses me. I like the guy actually.

Answer 13

My "suckage" meter has them neck and neck. They suck about the same. All ACC refs suck from my acute observations.

Answer 14

"giving him the business" is a classic. Ron cherry is not the originator but I'm glad he carried on the tradition.

Hey 96,Jeff Flanagan and his crew did the Miami game.

Answer 18

It is a trick question. It is like, which is worse: vomiting while having diarrhea, or having diarrhea while vomiting?

Answer 19

Then I vote for Flanagan. His entire crew should be on the unemployment line after that game.

Answer 21

I vote for the nit wit who moved the football during a close first down measurement in the Wake Forest game. That clown shouldn't be allowed to ref a pie eating contest.

Answer 22

I don't know how Ron Cherry gets away with his horrific referee mechanics, but he's really not that bad of an official.

Originally posted on Football Message Board by fineputinpogo.

Answer 23

Hess is the most incompetent.

Cherry is more of a clown than incompetent.

Many are corrupt INO (probably have money on the games).

Answer 24

Cherry is a very poor example of a CFB Referee.

Originally posted on Football Message Board by NAMFSUHD.

Answer 25

I think he's a prime example of a CFB referee. Just more entertaining...
