Report: SEC permanently suspends Ken Williamson after review of Auburn-Georgia officiating

Wow!

...and Jason Autrey continues under the radar...

No mention of the repaly officials in Birmingham that ultimately made the call on that goal line play!

That game wasn't even one of the worst games of the year, and by far wasn't one of the worst of the last 5 years.

Perhaps, but the Lil Aubs got their feefees hurt, so...

Crazy given Autrey and the replay booth.

And they should have.

Well, Hugh has all the ammunition needed now to whine and even keep his job. The latter pleases me greatly.

Anyone seen this on a reputable site? I've only seen it on YHN and Twitter.

All I can find is "sources say" on multiple sites--starting to feel like April 1

So, is there a difference between "Permanently Suspended" and "Fired"?

Guess we'll see on Saturday. But then again, the league is 1 game shy of a full slate.

The SEC office rarely comments on what they do with officials/crews. They suddenly stop “showing up” as assigned to games. So generally stuff like this gets reported as from an outside source.

Truthfully it really PO’s me. The Conference office for years has lectured us about their “transparency”. Then crap like this happens and they do stuff and hope no one notices because it would be admitting someone screwed up.

Probably means “you ain’t officiating anymore more games for the SEC but you can go screw up games in the Sun Belt if they’ll take you.”

Honestly, I am shocked they actually took action. LOOOOOOOOONNNG overdue

It appears that Williamson was effectively “fired” (permanently suspended) while the rest of the crew was suspended indefinitely. Could be wrong but that what I’m gleaning from several different sites.

I say the Oklahoma hideout and the questionable fumble are all karma coming back to bite the boogs after all those years of traveling around with a horseshoe up their backside. Luck has finally run out. (Hopefully)
