Most elect to stay in region because they believe they have the best. The ones that go out do not believe in that principle. Yea, why have your region dictated by an outside guy/gal that feels jilted because he was rated 3rd or 4th in his region. Whereas, at least you know the style of your refs,whether bad or good you have some clue.

Yes, it would be somewhat unfair for KCC or LCC to have 12th region refs, but trace history of regional finals and check the conflict of interest that arise. College roommates, calls to assigning secretaries on the day of the finals, etc.

Stay in region is my vote. I have been throughout the state of Kentucky playing, coaching, and refereeing and all regions have good refs, but all also have political bums who don't belong calling games. It is up to the assigning secretaries to do something about it, but as most know that is how they got their job.
