You really think there would be a shortage of officials wanting to work D1 games?

I'll take myself as an example. I want to stipulate right up front that I'm speaking for myself. I work for a couple of associations. I accept the games and the work that benefits me most. If one of the other associations sends me 60 to 75 miles away all the time and the other send me 10 to 25 miles away. where do you think I going to accept more games? The same goes for when and if someone tells me where and when and how many games I'm going to work. It's a choice. These officials get those D1 assignment have earned and diserve that honor. Again why and what does it matter if they work 1 or 6 games a week. Becuase Coach Knight says so. Maybe he should learn how to treat his players nicer. I don't tell him how to coach..
And yes I think that we are human, most will take the path of least resistance. it will bring a shortage to the pool..
Also keep in mind of all the abuse, the threats, the violence that we face. At what point does that small amount of money we earn make it worth it. I primarily do it becuase I love it.
