I also don't agree with the coaches rating officials. However, in Illinois they showed us the average ratings given by officials and the average ratings given by coaches. The average from officials was not great and the ones from coaches were more middle of the road. You'll have the good 'ole boy system even with officials rating officials.

Also, comment on the validity of the state championships by one coach. I'm not sure how haveing the same officials for regular season home games has any affect on winning state titles. Once the tourney comes around the state assigns the officials to games and the schools don't get to pick and his team still has to beat other teams that are just a qualified to be there once they get to that level.
