About 2-3 years too late. Reported by KC news outlets. Hope UMKC can find someone better. This is long overdue
UMKC could have Kevin Durant and they would still loose with WAC refs. Changing conferences is a bigger deal

It's always the refs with you.
Would they have the guts to hire Richardson's former boss? Are they willing to go down that road?
I wonder if he refs were involved in the decision to fire him...

Yes the Bakersfield call was the reason they starting right up the paperwork
and then the Flagrant Foul was signing the termination.
Those two calls don't happen, he is still there one more year.

The flagrant foul decreased UMKC win % by 40 points. That's way too much control by refs. Its every year in the WAC. Just like every year NMSU wins tourney and loses in 1st round.
Its not really a debate. I believe that UMKC does not perform well when PAC 12 and West Coast officials ref their games. The actual data implies this.
I don't enjoy the game when these officials officiate, like I did when UMKC was in the Mid Con even when UMKC was very very bad some of those year.
You guys like free throw contests and then lose in the NCAA when its not. That's ok. Do what makes you happy.
The only team that has done well in Postseason was Bakersfield because they depend on refs calling less fouls in general, not more.
I still think the goal should be move to a conference that respects us. The WAC didn't even put us in their official bracket. It just listed Utah Valley playing the #7 seed.

That’s 45 seconds of my life I’ll never get back. “We paid Kareem $250K a year so you think we should be able to get a pretty high profile hire.”
I had no idea that the WAC was out to get UMKC that much! I like the ranting about having to leave the WAC as soon as possible, but not wanting the Summit League either. Good luck with that. Don't let that big yellow tail get caught in the door on your way to Independent status. If you don't want "the Dakotas" conferenc, can you name ONE other that would take you?

Since they are also in KC, I would suggest contacting the NAIA with that. You could be rivals with Avila since your facilities are so similar lol.

I am not a big fan of $ in sports. Think it has ruined almost all sports in the last 10 years. NCAA, NFL, NBA, and now MLB.

GCU and NMSU. Who's playing in the final again?
Lol at the UMKC fan. A pathetic athletic program that nobody cares about. But is on here complaining about refs. UMKC sucked before they got to the WAC and will still suck if they ever leave.
