Was my uneducated guess that much far from the more educated answers from our college guys?

You really should stop talking about this. The season is almost a month away for many (not including scrimmages) and it has nothing to do with last-minute changes. D1 is operating very differently than last year and many things are being asked of the officials like showing vaccination status and more testing to all participants. No one is making last minute changes, they are waiting on the D1 to assign their staffs and the lower level college conferences are waiting so they can not make changes during the season because they did not anticipate that an official might work a higher level game. A D1 assignment can affect a D2, D3, NAIA and JUCO all at the same time. Because if an official had a lower level college game and gets a D1 assignment, there are supervisors that have to fill in the spot that person left. So they wait until most of the assignments are made so they do not have to make multiple changes because of someone they assigned too soon. The only way this affects high school is if someone that works high school is now offered a college game to fill in after someone moves up even if it involves several games.
