What would you choose:

a. A great official that uses the "fist to hips" block signal repeatedly
b. A good official that has good signals
c. An average official that has great signals

I'm not saying you can't have one without the other, but we are often guilty of worrying about the ants instead of taking care of the elephants.
I would think that for State Tournament games, they want good play callers first.

I have never heard fists or hands to the hips as a decisive reason for selecting one official over another. Someone has lost their perspective.
