I have officiated HS ball for over 15 years...also some small college ball years ago...so I think I might be qualified in telling you, you are full of it (or yourself).
I would be more apt to agree with Dan when he stated that SOME HS officials might have a problem with this.

Yes. I said MOST. I mean MOST. And most is not the 20 year vet.
Well I have been working almost 10 years and working varsity ball for 8 years, I think I am rather qualified to comment on this as well. I do not think that most HS officials can handle a coach without giving a T. And one of the reasons this is, mainly because coaches at the HS level just rant and rave over just about everything. And part of this is because most officials at the HS level do not have the respect of most HS coaches. So I believe that the Ts will go up as a result. You do not have to agree, just my opinion. This mechanic is OK for the college level because the coaches are more professional and have more of a relationship with the officials. They are not seeing different officials every single game.
I have had assignors tell me and others in my area, that coaches try to get rid of the assignors of their conference all the time. And usually this happens because they are upset of who works their games. They do not trust the judgment of the so called experts, what makes you think they think of the guy that is working their game?
