I don't have anything against them, and they are great officials, but it will always lead to hard feelings and someone will be treated unfairly.

Each board rates their officials their own way. When it comes down to state tournament assignments though, it is 100% how many votes you get from coaches and your assignments are 100% how much Mr Murray knows/trusts you.
