Here is the official policy straight from the NCAA championship handbook.
2011 NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship Officiating Policies
"No official shall be assigned to work any session unless the official agrees to refrain from entering into any officiating commitment the day before the tournament game date.
For the Final Four, each official shall agree not to accept any officiating assignment within five days of the national semifinals for reasons of health and safety. For all rounds, the official must also agree to be at the site of the game by 9 p.m. local time the day before the competition. Each official must contact the tournament manager immediately upon arrival or, if any unforeseen delays are encountered, notify the tournament manager."
