No, I am telling you about substitutions in general. If a player is legally substituted into a game, that player must stay in the game until the clock has run and the next legal substitution opportunity then occurs. That's NFHS rule 3-3-4. There are 2 exceptions ONLY allowed to rule 3-3-4. As outlined in Rules 8-2 and 8-3, they are an injured foul shooter and players coming in to shoot a technical foul shot. Casebook plays 3.3.3SitA and 8.2SIT further explains and confirms these two exceptions.

The above exceptions are what makes the answer to plmartin18's original qustion "true". Eddie376's scenario,where a coach wants to sub again before the clock starts for a player who had just come in is NOT one of the 2 exceptions, so it is illegal under R3-3-4.

Make sense now?
