Of course 3-person is only great if everyone watches their primary. Officiating PERIOD is only good if everyone watches their primary.
Three officials who know what they're doing are absolutely better than two. The challenge is making sure all three work as a solid crew.
I did a three-man game recently where we didn't call a single foul until 6:00 into the game. It had great flow, good, physical play, and the coaches liked it fine. The notion that 3-man automatically means three times as many calls is not true. Heck, you can accomplish that with ONE whistle.
The major obstacle will always be money...either schools not wanting to pay it, or officials not wanting less of it.
