Does anyone know or have an idea of why officials seem to move on from the SEC to work in other conferences regularly? Is it for better pay?



Any thoughts

Consortiums. Big time officials being forced to show their allegiances to a single supervisor who has multiple conferences.

Yep. I've heard of more than one D1 official getting booted from one consortium because of "availability."

"Independent contractors" :rolleyes:

Thanks for the lecture, I’m well aware of how it works.

You sure couldn't tell from your comments. And, the fact that you made this replay suggest you really don't quite grasp it either. You seem to want to have your cake and eat it too.
