To succeed as a college official, you need to know the rules and the manual AND how that particular game's supervisor wants the rules interpreted and mechanics executed. That's just a fact of life at the collegiate level.

Yes, it is. But that doesn't mean it should be.

I'm not sacrificing my career for that battle, especially since that aspect of college officiating doesn't bother me. And it doesn't bother most college officials.

My question: who determines whether or not it is right?
