I don't really see any positives for letting a school have a say in who does playoffs. And, what schools have a say? Playoff teams or all teams? By this I mean that some things happen in a game that are black and white (no pun intended, well maybe there is) and must be taken care of. I like to call this getting dirty. Some officials already do not like to get dirty and knowing a coach has a say in how long your season lasts would make an official that much more reluctant to get dirty.
I'm not saying we do things above and beyond our responsibilities. I'm also not saying anyone on this board would ignore something to stay in the good graces of a coach. But, I have seen it happen with officials that aren't on this board so I know it happens.

Can you tell us what the positives are?
