Message: [QUOTE="ThisJustIn, post: 4805701, member: 382"] My understanding (and I haven't done a deep dive for a few years) is that everything up to the NCAA tourney (where officials are picked via recommendations from coaches/conferences via post-game reports - I think) everything is conference based. Top conference pay top dollar and have the burgers (though, I recall Barb Jacobs said she had to pay refs AND her salary out of her budget). They pay fee, travel, house, per diem (likely). The lead ref fills out an end of game report, DVDs (i'm old) of the game are shared and reviewed. Coordinator is onsite to eval and/or hires someone to eval game. Re rules/points of emphasis: That's decided by the NCAA rules committee. A DVD/updated rules is sent to each team and they must review and sign off. The Coordinator might attend an NCAA led "Coordinators mtg" to review the new rules/points of emphasis. They're responsible for enforcing them (and refs are responsible for knowing them). Coordinators can organize professional developments.. but that means paying refs/travel/housing/food/space etc. (Unless they're using zoom now?) as refs are independent contractors.
