NCAA Mechanics Question

[JRutledge]

Why do the both NCAA Men's and Women's and sit in a room and come up with some simularities or not make everything so different.

I was at a camp this past weekend like I said, and asked a question about rotations. Why did I even ask? I got turned into a big deal and how defensive I got when all I wanted to do was understand the philosophy of NF mechanics as it related to the NCAA women's video they just had shown us.

For those that are not familiar, both Men's and Women's NCAA puts out videos and they have different point of emphisis on the rules and mechanics concerns. If you have seen both videos or the differences by reading the rules and other changes they both make every year, they can be vastly different. All I wanted to know was how was the video (NCAA Women's side) different from the NF mechanics that are very different. This was a HS camp and many of the things they were asking us to do was all over the map. Some NF mechanics, some NCAA mechanics (both sides), some Pro mechanics. And the reason is that we had more officials that did other levels other than as clinicians than I had ever been around. About the only HS clinician was an assignor for one of the leagues in the state.

I just wish they would get together and make more similarities, because I am so confused when different people want to adopt this mechanic and this other mechanic because they do something other than HS, which is the only level I currently do.

But that would be wishful thinking.
