Love it! That puts the "it's all about the kids" platform right back squarely on the shoulders of the LHSAA and its director.

If it truly is all about the kids, I don't think a mid-year change to the constitution to give the officials their first raise in 20 years is too much to ask.

Anyone know if headquarters NFHS is watching this closely?

The issue is primarily with the principals which I have no idea how they have a say in officiating rates.Here the section makes the rate schools pay we all live happily ever after.It would be interesting to know how closely if at all NFHS headquarters is watching this situation.

I doubt the NF even cares about this as they have nothing to do with how officials are assigned or even the standards that officials have to live by overall. All the NF has any say over (and that is if the states care) are mechanics and rules of each game. Even if the NF takes a position, it is not going to change what happens here.

A tentative agreement appears to have been reached.

Neither side is saying publicly what that agreement entails as of yet.

Do you think they got any compensation for this year?
