The American Athletic Conference has announced a football officiating alliance with the Big 12 Conference, the Mountain West Conference and the Southland Conference.
More than 300 officials will be under the alliance’s umbrella, ensuring consistent training, evaluation and grading processes across the conferences. The alliance conferences will use this pipeline to develop a ‘bench’ of officials that have been trained and evaluated under consistent philosophies and mechanics.
Each conference will have its own coordinator of officials to manage its respective officiating programs, with the alliance overseen by Big 12 Coordinator of Officials Greg Burks. The American’s Supervisor of Football Officials will be Bryan Platt, who has served in that role since 2018.
