scratched?

That sounds like a flawed system, not something dealing with only that official. I do not work in a system where the coach has that much control (or any control) over my schedule. If they try to, I will not work for the appropriate person.

I learned long time ago that trying to work at one school is silly. I will probably pass a hundred schools to get to that one. At the end of the day, who cares what one coach thinks. For all you know the recommendation might not mean anything in the first place. We give coaches a little too much power or credit on these kinds of things.
