Moving: Kentucky/Indiana - Back to Illinois
 
All,

I am relocating to Kentucky/Indiana (near Hawesville, KY and Tell City, IN). I was wondering if there were any officials from that area that could provide me with information on officiating.

Thanks.

I don't think they play basketball in Kentucky or Indiana.

They play some *******ized version of it in KY land. It involves Fed Ex packages of cash, new cars, fake SAT/ACT scores and coaches who are on the low end of NCAA ethical behavior.
Now INDIANA - John Wooden, Bob Knight, Steve Alford, Scott Skiles, Glenn Robinson, Bobby Plum, Rick Mount, HOOSIERS, and we will even claim Kyle Macy, Sean Wood (who hit the shot BEFORE "The Shot" against Duke) and Shawn Kemp before they were corrupted by the "other" place got their grimy paws on these fine young men.
What was the question again?:p

Calipari will be scooting out the door shortly anyway, as usual one tiny step ahead of the inevitable NCAA probe and subsequent probation. And also as usual, there will be some scuzzball basketball factory somewhere waiting with open arms(and wallets) to hire him. Maybe Duke.

Duke is already taken. There is a reason Johnny Dawkins took the Stanford job.

Look up Eric Harmon. He assigns some Mens JUCO / NAIA pus I think he is affiliated with HS in IN?

The KIAC (NAIA) which spans KY and IN: Ron Dixon.

The Heartland - D3 - Mike Conlin

Thank you!

Tanner, it's been a privilege getting work with you from the time you were absolutely green and scared to death, till now. You have worked harder than any young official I have been around. Keep up the good work in your new area. And keep that Illinois license. I would love to be able to work a tournament game or two with you for as long as my knees will allow!

Ky hs
 
Good Luck in KY. I used to live in KY and know the system. KY does things very different than most states. The state hires an assigner for each region. You can find out who that is in your area by going to khsaa.org

There are some pluses and some minuses on this. You can only work in one region in KY. The only exception to that is Louisville and Lexington both have two districts that cover the area. The officials all work both regions.

Louisville is very difficult region. They many officials and they have a pecking order. Most other regions are more flexible.

IN is totally different. Most AD assign their own games and have them scheduled for the next several years.

You can work both sides of the state line but it will take time to get in. Good Luck and get registered immediately with both states.

On the move again....

I'm landing back in Illinois!

Welpe Thu Dec 30, 2010 01:53pm

Can't decide huh? Are you moving back to the same area?

I moved half way across the country last year, I don't even want to entertain the thought of having to get reestablished somewhere else.

No, different area (by about 3 hours).

Looking forward to being back... not looking forward to packing/moving again.

Naw, Indiana tightened their immigration laws.

Of course, on the plus side sending Tanner back to Illinois raises the collective IQ of both states.

Well according to some sources, you do have a separate POD for just officiating gear so I can see that.

Good luck on the move.

Is this proof that the Simpson's Springfield is actually in Illinois? Is Illinois bordered by Ohio, Nevada, Maine, and Kentucky?
