The other point that is missing about college ready is that college assignors will not necessarily hire the best ref available but will instead hire the ref who has the most potential so he can build the ranks. I've seen a number of very very good older officials not get hired at the college level while younger guys on the way up get the look. Of course this varies from coordinator to coordinator, area to area, but it makes sense to hire someone who will be working for you for 20 years rather than someone who might just arrive for a cup of coffee, so long as the young ref has reached a certain level of competence.
