Dan, I think you were not well served. As a fairly new official you have a long way to go before you start to worry about looking good as an NCAA guy.

I disagree with this. I am a believer in going to the NCAA camps as soon as possible. Why learn from anyone, but the best? It is not about "looking like" an NCAA official, it is about learning from their experiences and not making makes because they correct them before the mistakes are too deeply ingrained into what you do.

Once again, I disagree. While you are learning how to ref, go to the best source of information. Absolutely learn and practice the NF mechanics--that is very important, but you will always get better instruction from better instructors. Go to the college camps, you will not regret it. I know I haven't.

My advice: keep raising that hand until your *NCAA* supervisor tells you he'll fire you if you don't stop.

Good advice.
