Assigning playoff umpires in Texas

[JRutledge]

I think that Texas model is silly. Why would the coaches have that much say over a situation where people lose their season is over?

I don't think the Texas method has been adaquately explained. But how do you do it?

Looked like the pitcher did not not come to a complete and discernible stop.

I don't have a no-stop balk. Can't really tell if anything else is going on.

If you mean how does my state assign the playoffs, it is done by the IHSA Sports Administrator. Every single assignments. We do have a rating system, but it has a small input from coaches and it only used with other information to decide who is going to work games. Coaches have no say in where someone goes or when they work their games in the post season.
