Very rare indeed. In the SEC, Jeff Roberson moved from referee to umpire a couple of years back. That's the only other such move I can remember.

So who is left for Big 12 Refs: DeFee, Eck, Smith, Castleberry.... Rick Loumiet and Dan Romeo should be returning as well. There will probably be 1 or 2 new Referee hires as well, probably someone like Brad Van Vark, Eddy Shelton, and Brandon Cruse.

I think the MWC is part if the consortium the Big XII is part of. They may do some mixing and matching if that's the case.

They are but there is always 3-4 crews that are strictly MWC and Southland and do not work any Big 12 which is what both Shelton and Cruse were last year. I could see one or both of them now working Big 12 as well.

Big 12 Refs Castleberry (Sr. Ref) Defee Eck Romeo Shelton - New Smith Van Vark - New MWC Refs Alvarez Campbell - New Cruse July - Returning to ref Mar In the CFO West (B12, MWC, Southland), officials in B12 will work across all leagues, MWC officials will work SLC also, and the SLC is developmental. Some MWC crews will work "scramble games" in the first couple weeks to fill slots in the B12; as SLC officials will also fill in for MWC games to get a look at that level. Important to note that not all refs come up through the bottom level. Defee, Smith and Van Vark are examples of guys who moved from other positions on a B12 crew to ref, while Campbell and Mar gave up their positions in the B12 to take MWC ref spots. Alvarez, Cruse, Shelton and even Mike Defee worked their way up from SLC.
