Stick to your guns
You HAVE to stick to your guns. Corny, but the old "two wrongs don't make a right" does come into play. If you want the respect of knowledgeable basketball people (and presumably the state folks you want picking you for a state finals tourney), how can you do otherwise? The trick is in the gray areas, of course. If you have "money" guys sliding one way, don't be obnoxious in going the other way, calling things that wound send those same state experts to the rule book to double-check you're right (even if you are).
