He is the president of his officials' assn in North Carolina. He is one of the best both on this forum and on the court (field too as he is also a top football official.)
BTW I believe that giving the coaches and ADs the power KSRef07 describes compromises the integrity of the game. Officials become more worried about pleasing the coach and the AD than calling the game correctly. It is a sad situation. |

Uhh, I just joined this DB about a week or so ago. Just got caught up with some closed minded individuals on this thread. I am retired since the age of 38. Still own/run 4 companies, but really a silent board member. |

Let me just tell you from my standpoint that I really don't care who started what... If I think a post is inappropriate and goes against the guidelines of the forum I will delete it. Usually I don't do this because I don't have a lot of time to police the forum (the moderators do a great job of this though!) -- but sometime, if I feel the need, I will take care of things myself. I gave you some advice in a previous post... You are new here -- registered less than two weeks. You might want to settle in a little bit for a while as you seem to have rubbed a lot of long time members the wrong way. |

So you call 180 varsity games a year. How long is the season in Kansas? |

Great for Brad. A little disappointed he would ask "Is this your first year?" after admonishing me about "snarky posts". I would have asked "How long have you been officiating?" Hope that doesn't translate to his rapport on the court - "hey coach, have you read a rule book?" . :D |

KS -- you really need to tone down your posts. You are defensive to anything that anyone says that doesn't agree with you and your responses are sarcastic and derogatory. To put it in coach terms: This is your warning. |
Post deleted ... And in time out for a few days ... I did give you your official warning.

No, officials and assignors are not all powerful. But the NCHSAA is. And they do not allow egotistical coaches and power hungry ADs decide who officiates their games. Further, I have no reason to believe that things are done the same in all states. But I do know that it's absolutely ridiculous for a coach to try to mark an official off because he doesn't like it that a rule is being correctly enforced. Kudos Brad for giving this "poster" some time off to re-think his posting habits. |

I did some quick, basic math.
180 varsity games a year? It takes a 15 weeks season, working double headers 6 nights a week. Then, he has to squeeze in the 60 sub varsity games during that same 15 week season. |

At least 3 high school games a day--7 days a week. Check. |
