This particular coach has been one of my good friends since I was young. I am doing his game tonight everyone knows I'm his friend and everyone knows I'm impartial as well. I think that line of officials stay away from coaches is a bad line. Anyways, I told him PC all day.

No no. Don't take me wrong. More so they forbid issues like this. Coaches/officials interacting about games and officiating issues. Not so much of being friends with someone off the floor, though it's probably best to limit that stuff as much as possible. Basketball fans are so nuts, I don't want to give any air of impropriety.
