I seriously doubt that the D1 coaches have any significant say in who works their games.
However, I'm also sure that they certainly make their preferences known to their ADs and perhaps the officials supervisors in the respective conferences. I was once told by a D1 official that all of these coaches have control of those big, beautiful facilities, the lives of 12 or so kids, the careers of their assistants, etc....About the only thing they don't have control of is those three guys out there in the striped shirts...and that drives them crazy....so they would prefer to have a known entity (veteran official) vs an unknown (new guy in the conference).

Oh, you're serious? Coaches have influence. Big influence. Look at the rules committee — all coaches, no officials ... not even a coordinator of officials. It's not like coaches are assigning officials to games, but they certainly have big input — even at the D1 level (and especially at the lower college levels). Put it this way — if you are working a conference with 12 teams and 6 of the coaches don't like you, you're not going to last long. |
