It's a crazy system but at least we have some control over where we work. I wonder if it would be nicer to have an assigner process (we might get an opportunity to work some more interesting schools), but I'm sure that is full of politics. The playoffs are assigned by the state on a week to week basis.
How the heck does Indiana have games scheduled that far in advance? Nebraska and Iowa don't even have the games scheduled yet for 2008 and 2009, as they handle scheduling on a 2-year basis. Even before the states took over the scheduling process, I don't think any school in Nebraska and Iowa had games scheduled 6 years in advance. If they did, it was with some out-of-state school in which special arrangements were part of the deal.
