The other day a JV official ask me where is the rule that says players cannot sit on the bench during a 30 second timeout. A coach ask him why the could not. I thought it was easy and was going to show it to him in the NF rule book. That is when I found that it did not state in the timeout rule that they could not sit on the bench. In the mechanics manual it states it, but how can we enforce mechanics?

ur,
Let 'em sit. As long as they're ready when you are, there is nothing about which we should be concerned.
That used to be a recommendation, along with no water, but NFHS has now passed on it.
There may be a liability thing about exhaustion leading to injury, or somethin'.
