I am not an NCAA official, nor have I ever considered being one. That said, some officials that I know who work NCAAM Division I ball, or some who want to work NCAAM Division I ball, tell me, their words, not mine, that the NCAA is looking for young, athletic looking, black, men to work their NCAA Division I men's games. Is there discrimination based on age, appearance, race, or sex? I don't know. I hope not. I'm just reporting what we're hearing in my part, and on my level, of the officiating woods.
