GOTTA LOVE THE MECHANICS DEBATES
I love listening (reading) to the various opinions on proper mechanics vs game administration. Those stating that D1 officials should know the fundamental rules are correct. Those stating that D1 officials need to be great game managers are also correct. The point being missed by rookie and vet alike.....those at the top should be doing it the correct way so that those trying to get there follow good examples.
This same arguement can be found in the college officials who come down and work a high school game on an off night. How many times are they being watched by and up-and-coming JV official who think that the varsity refs must be doing it right because they are there......only to be told that the two college refs are using college mechanics...and not what they should be doing!
Just my 2 cents.....
