The game is advancing to the level of the need for three person, and I believe that eventually we need all levels to go to it. I believe that one major obstacle is the one of cost to a lot of these smaller schools, thay just cannot afford the extra $45 for the third official, plus numbers are down for officials in my state and nationwide. Let's recruit people!! Just my 2 cents.

During our season each school has 10 to 15 home games. Our fee is $65 and change. That's $650 to $975 thruough the couse of the season. Each school charges admission and usually sell concessions is it really a money issue? Or due the old school AD's and coaches just refuse to conform? Sorry to vent but if the personel is available we should work!!
