Mark, I would seriously question whether the NBA officials could be found doing any other level of basketball, they simply do not have the time. My answer to Oz's question: To be a NCAA official is more like a fantasy than an unreachable dream. Most of us don't have the time to put the effort that it takes to go that far, and are perfectly happy being a part of the high shcool game and maybe some aspirations to work some small college. I have gotten to know several officials that work D-II, DIII, and JuCo ball, including my uncle, who I consider my mentor. I am going to go to a couple of camps this summer and I believe that I have a chance of working some of those games in a couple of years if I keep improving and working hard. Realistically that is about as far as I expect to get.
