I was in Colorado where IAABO is the sole orginization supplying officials for basketball in the state. At a state directors meeting last year, there was a discussion about leaving the organzation and it almost came to blows. There are high feelings on both sides. I do not know what happened so I am not going to say more. I just know that being that we are in Colorado and most of the organization is on the East coast, there is a feeling of alienation. We only see the National Organization during the rules clinic when Jacky Loube or someone of his stature gives us a visit. We get a newsletter and some of our training material comes from IAABO. Camps are run by local college officials, not IAABO, and we rarely see any support but we see all our dues leaving the area.
