But to answer your real question - Either you misinterpreted what you mentor said or its time to find a new mentor. In no way shape or form are D1 womens officials aspiring to work D1 mens. First of all a lot of them are women. Secondly, with very very few exceptions do you cross over from womens to mens. You can go women's to men's, but let's be real, that's not considered a lateral move by most. That statement by your mentor just does not make sense. To get to the crux of your question, what you need to concentrate on attaining (not the same as your end goal mind you) is the very next level from where you are at. I've heard it said just about every camp I've been to. If you are a JV official, you need to worry about becoming a varsity official. If you are a varsity official, you can think about becoming a D3, NAIA, Juco level referee. If you are working D3, NAIA, juco, then we can start thinking about getting DII assignments, and then finally if you are solid DII official, you can start thinking about DI. Guys like Teddy V are an enigma. Chances are you're not. And if you are, you're not here posting this question. So having said that, find guys that are considered good at that next level, not necessarily to imitate them, but take what they do well, make it yours and fit it in your game.

No, because I'm a cowboy.
If I ever did a JV game(did one this season and only for a particular assignor/league) and didn't use a lanyard I'd be hooted out of gym everyone involved. Like the weekend bike riders who wear the full metal jacket Lance Armstrong junior starter uniforms, strictly wannabes. That's how I view high school refs with no lanyards. |

Nutmeg State?
I thought it was the Constitution State. Never heard Provision State.

George Washington Slept Here, He Did, Really ...
Connecticut was coined the “Provision State” by George Washington for the important role the state’s productive farms played in feeding the troops for the American Revolution.

It's Considered Vulgar ...
We, here in the Land of Steady Habits, find that very offensive. Please cease, and desist.
