We get ours 2 or 3 weeks at a time, on Sunday a week before the first game on the schedule.

But we still have to turn in closeouts before the season begins. Just becasue he hasn't sent them to us, doesn't mean he hasn't already assigned them. If he assigns them in Arbiter and then you closeout, whatever is was in the system first is going to win out.

Our assignor is lucky to get schedules from schools two months in advance. No way he could assign that far out, plus the added issue of this being a very transient area with the military aspect.

I guess conference commissioners have more control over scheduling.

Seems like a very valid issue to me. My guess is that these peeved officials have never assigned before.
