That being said, we have parameters for postseason but they are rarely followed. Ratings index, career length, number of varsity contests in that reg season etc. all of them get ignored during postseason. Sometimes bc of shortage of officials, but mostly due to politics.

I would rather have a mix of coach, peer, assignor, evaluator, assn and written test scores be the basis for a rating.

At least in Missouri the coaches have to rate you, which balances things out at least some of the time. The way the OP described it, their coaches only put in a rating if they are upset with the job you did.
