I cannot stand the narrative that only HS officials call the game a certain way either. I have been doing this long enough to see officials simply say, "I do not care about the coaching box and I do not know why (name is taken out) cares either?

Then these will be the same officials wondering why they cannot work certain postseason assignments or why they cannot get the right holiday tournament or featured shootout.

Sometimes the path of least resistance does not do you justice. And I am glad to see the official take action, but high school officials certainly are not doing a lot of giving Ts either.
