Jason Baker
 

Kentucky high school Jason Baker made the Sporting News this week with a photo of him officiating a college game in Youngtown St.

?????????????????

A high school officiated a game? Even the custodians? Did the lunch lady call any fouls? ;)

Maybe I'm reading the post wrong, but a high school kid officiated a college game? Unless this is some kind of weird publicity stunt, does anybody know the name of this assignor who has just assigned their last game for Youngstown State?

yep. that would be incoming NCAA National Coordintaor of Men's Basketball Officials - John Adams (Hank Nichols is retiring at the conclusion of this season). John currently assigns the men's officials in the Horizon League

Did the lunch lady call any fouls?


Yes, the dreaded 'over the snack' call.

Do you have an URL for this article. This just doesn't sound correct. A long time personal friend was the Horizon League evaluator at YSU but he died of a heart attack last summer so I do not know who took his place as evaluator at YSU. I will make some phone calls and send some emails to friends in the both the Trumbull Co. Bkb. Off. Assn. and the Mahoning Valley Bkb. Off. Assn. to see who the new evaluator is and try to get to the bottom of this.

MTD, Sr.

Maybe he meant an intramural game?

makes sense.

A quick search on their site yields nothing - hmmmmm.

secondregion probably meant Jon Deibler. It's an understandable mistake.

People that attend Ohio State usually cannot juggle two things at the same time. :p

Peace

Thats cold. LOL :D

MTD, Sr.

You've got a long way go before you ketchup to Mark.

Of course they can.

Of course, they also just drop them like they usually do.

Ha!! Nice!

I thought you would like that comment. :D

Peace

Fwiw, a "Jason Baker" has officiated 18 games in that conference this year, according to bbstate.com.

I'd say that it's highly unlikely that he's a high school student.

He's a punter for the Carolina Panthers in his off time.

They named a high school after an NFL punter? Wow! Must be a helluva punter.

And they say the education system in America is under achieving?

This Jason Baker High School is a fine example of what our school systems are capable of producing.

Did the coach yell, "That's a peach!"? :p

That must have been the game where the kid won it at the end by hitting a tray. :p

Maybe it was O.J. Mayo (double pun there). :p

OK, I'll stop for now. See - you guys will never ketchup to me after all.

He has 11 years of experience as a HS official according to khsaa.org so i'm pretty sure it was a typo in the first post as all of you are aware. There were no bricks and mortar running up and down the court. The lunch lady was making sloppy joes, not officiating. There was no 16 year old working an NCAA game. Give it a rest.

Based on the posting history of regionbug we can't assume it was a typo.

Jason Baker is not in high school.

regionbug - you are going to have to stop posting while drunk :)
