I am not sure about Jeff R's experience, but we are from the same general area, and I have never been asked to work a scrimmage for free by any assignor, nor have I been subject to any repercussions for refusing to work a scrimmage when the fee is lower than I was willing to accept.

You're a college official and have never worked a scrimmage for free?
