Bulldog75:
Following a series of complaints from a chapter subcommittee, the chapter officers were removed by the state.  Now most of those subcommittee members are nominated to replace them.  Some fishy political games going on.

oldtimerref:
Most friends active & retired are very quiet about the situation however all I here is it is about policies. Chapter has put a large slate of candidates for each office but the election has been put off for now. With so many referees involved wonder if schedules are somewhat a factor.

Disagreements like this are almost always about who gets the most and/or “biggest” games.

Generally, yes... but that is not the cause of this kerfuffle, I am certain. This chapter has over 1200 members, and games are  assigned for the most part by coaches picking, they have a 'draft' every spring and coaches go in order and pick the crew they want for a particular game.  To a person, everyone that I have talked to has said this is specifically related to bylaws infractions of some kind.

Cosmokramer1:
Maybe it's associated with a specific individual who gets higher classification playoff and state championship games each year because he is selected by the coaches.  But, by the way, he also happens to be associated in business with also selling goods to those schools.  Certainly no conflict of interest there....
