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.
