The officials here in Ohio as stated earlier have a Director of Officiating Development. This office is separate from the OHSAA office ,but works in conjunction with the State Office. The person that holds this office is a former NFL Ref and he has really shaken things up in Officiating in Ohio for the Better. Each year he puts out a Booklet form with Approved Football Officiating standards and where he wants officials to be on a given play. This is the same guy the began a list of legal and illegal UNS acts that was discussed in a different topic. I was wondering how many other states have a guy in that posit on who can lay out such a program. I want to state that he has travelled the state in the off season and met with over 20 crews including mine and two others to discuss problems the crews are having and to develop such guidelines Let me know if other states have such a program. I am sure our mechanics are different from others that use NFHS mechanics. Thanks!
