What I meant was, the school has the ultimate authority over whom they hire. If a coach doesn't like an official the official is often "black-balled" and won't get games there again. That is the reality. Our association takes requests from schools for whom they want and don't want. We honor those requests.
In no way would I imply that the host school can influence an official during the contest. If I am doing a game, both schools have no authority except for safety issues during the game, e.g., condensation on the floor, roof leaking, fans out of control, power failures, etc. We would confer on those issues with the home game management.
