For those who enjoy betting on the games, these guys have been on a heater in January.

My old hypothesis was that they were golden until mid-January, then KenPom catches up and arbitrages it all away. But this year they were like 50-50 through Jan 1, and then did great all month. So… :man_shrugging:

I think Jim is probably most reliable.

Norlander’s leg work on ref pay:

• Big Six conferences pay officials $3,700 per game (pre-taxes) on average — league and non-league games alike. An Elon-Duke game pays the same as UNC-Duke. Officials have to cover all their costs: flights, hotels, rental cars, ride services, meals, etc. All told, they’re taking home around 3K per game (before taxes).
• Pay rate is the same for league tournaments.
• The NCAA Tournament pays $2,500 for the first weekend, $3,000 for the regionals and $3,500 to work the Final Four. But unlike conferences, the NCAA covers travel and hotel costs.

If you’re a top-40 referee, you can easily get to 90 games in a season. At that pace, an official working through the Final Four would bring home somewhere in the neighborhood of $330,000 in one season, before taking out taxes and before deducting the tens of thousands of dollars in travel expenses. These are independent contractors compensated generously for a job that comes with immense pressure and scrutiny.

Ok but what do Carolina Refs get paid? Like a million? Or do they do it just for the love of douchery?

Do refs have to file state taxes in every state they’ve officiated a game during the year?

My job here is bad takes, not tax advice. :wink:

I’d assume so, but not really sure

I think it’s only where you live as primary address …
Never mind … depends on reciprocity agreements between states… and each state has a minimum threshold to file
