A couple of weeks ago I had my first T for going OOB in a boys JV game. As you can imagine, the call was not popular. And you probably would not be surprised that it caught the coaches off gaurd since they had not bothered to attend the "mandatory" rules meeting at the start of the year.
At half time the varsity coach corners me and my partner to discuss this. We spent probably five minutes listening to him. He expressed his opinion that varsity officials would not call it, and if they did there would be phone calls and blah blah blah. That same week a friend of mine had a similar experience with being cornered by a varsity coach at half time.
Anybody have a good way of handling this? In my case we let him have his say and then went to the dressing room. But it seems rather unprofessional for a varsity coach to be molesting the JV officials in this way.
