I know Chris...Ididn't realize he was working D1 - which conference??? When did he get picked up??? He's an interesting story, not one that many people can relate to!

And yes, the Heritage coach is a royal pain - esp. when he's losing games...kid's attitudes suck also. He is the bro-in-law to the Prairie boys coach, so those match-ups are always a hoot...

I don't remember which conference. He apparently has just finished his second season. He had so much quiet confidence, I can see why he's moved up so fast. It seems to come very naturally for him.

Mainly what he said, Luther, is that you need to go into it with your eyes open and make a well-informed choice. Don't expect to get things your way. You do what you're told, and make the best of it. If you can't live with that, it would be best not to get started. He was talking about the D2 and D1 level mostly, I think. Assignors are little gods, and you have to just submit. He wasn't saying this in a negative way. But was saying this is why a lot of people don't move up -- they want it their own way. He's flexible becuase of being very young and having no wife or family. He can choose a job around his reffing schedule, and he doesn't have a lot of juggling to do. If you are coming at it later in life, you need to see what the sacrifice could be, and try to decide whether it's worth it.
