Case in point the game Welmer got hurt, it was clear that the Coach Izzo and Coach Self did not get on the senior of the officials about much of anything. If you do not give newer guys a chance, you will get the same officials over and over again. You are not giving the supervisors any incentive to use other officials.

Agree completely. The only time this becomes an issue is when there is a controversial call and the coaches/media then complain about the number of games an official is working.
Remember Jim Bain in the 90's working two conference finals in one day (he flew his own private plane to the 2nd game) and only because he made a controversial game deciding call in the 2nd game was there an issue with it.
