We (working NCAA rules) go by the mantra, "slow whistles, but NOT no whistles." Generally speaking, at the varsity level, coaches are OK with plays ending without whistles. At the subvarsity level, however, coaches chirp about it some.
I mention what we do at the HS level since in Texas, as I bet Mike will attest to, we've always gotten our direction from local college conferences and officials that work there. (I speak not only from my experience, but from my dad who worked in the days of the Southwest Conference). Anyway, I think its just as wrong to go with no whistles as it is to go with quick ones. And bets that would cause guys not to do their job is a good example of totally unprofessional behavior.
