Callmecrazy, you have no clue what you are talking about!!!! Have you watched a college game on TV lately? There are even worse calls there than in JV/freshmen games. And a majority of these high school officials do officiate college ball. So your point about college officials being better than high school officials has no legs to stand on.
BUT, you are right about one thing, as is everyone else as they know it, too. Officials who get regional tournament and state tournament selections are not sent there because of their ratings, as the assigners would have us all believe. It is who is in the inner circle of the assigners buddy-system. And no matter how good an official is, if they are not in that circle, then they either don't get post-season assignments, or their season ends after district tournaments. I know MANY top-notch officials who have been in many years, and can call circles around some of these officials who do region and state year after year, yet they never get picked for a region or state. And that is because they don't play the politics or kiss ass like many others. There have been officials who have been varsity only 3-5 seasons that have gotten region and/or state tournaments all because of who they know, not how good they are. It's a freakin joke!!!
So, that is how it is. And it is NEVER going to change.
