On the point as a whole, I have worked for several assignors who officiate.

The main guy I worked for though, was at gyms every other night of the week though to see his guys work, and that's one of the things I really appreciated about him. To say he's incredibly dedicated to his work is an understatement.

If it is the assignor I believe that was, I did not work for that assignor and never did.

And that particular person did not put himself on the better games or high profile games to my knowledge. That person worked enough in other conferences as he is a very accomplished high school official.

It seems silly to me to have an expectation that they do not work. This is high school, not major college ball where other things are at stake.

Peace

All three assignors that send me games are active officials. Doesn't bother me in the least. I've even worked with 2 of the 3. They are very good officials.

The NCHSAA forbids assignors from working varsity football or basketball games.

Likewise in Oregon with the occasional exception that must be approved by the state....some areas just don't have enough bodies to cover all the games they have and the assignor must work or the game would be left uncovered.

Which is also the reason they still allow assignors to work in other sports where fewer officials are usually available.

I believe OhioHSAA does not allow assignors to work tournaments for many of the same "good ole boy" reasons mentioned above.

All assignors that I have worked for are active officials. I have no problems with anything. 1 college assignor was no longer active and had no problems with that either.
