One more thought, agree with alot of what is said above about revenue.

A D1 Baseball team plays roughly double the amount of games a college basketball team does. Schools only have so much budgeted for officials.

A sidebar, but I thought I'd throw it in. It has everything to do with revenue generation on the school's side of things, and that helps determine where the supply and demand curves fall. Not just umpires, coaches too. I doubt any baseball manager in NCAA comes with 15% of what a top D1 football coach makes.

And it goes all the way down to the guy who sweeps the floors on the supply and demand curve (min. wage will bring it all back to a flat level that low though).
