[that's a walk]

After this first two weeks of the boys season here in MI. I have a real appreciation of the comments made in this forum about how coaches know only a certain percent of the rules. I don't go around talking about my knowledge of the rules. I continue to pick up more info each time I open this website. Anyway.....Last week JV boys from my hometown. Not that that makes a difference.... Close game 3rd qtr. Hometown boys lose ball OOB. My partner bounces ball to V1 for a endline throw-in. Prior to the toss IB V coach calls a T.O. I whistle the T O and report it. H coach says and I quote "Man he already tossed the ball in bounds." I walk up to him and ask "Since when can the team with the ball not call a time out?" He just turns around and goes back to the bench. OK same coach - different game - different location. His player has the ball in frontcourt closely guarded. My partner in clearly counting. She gets to five and whistles for the violation. He's yelling "He was ingauged" My partner looks at him like ...What the heck are you talking about coach??? I just shook my head. Third and last...This was our first big Class A (largest in MI)V boys game. Just the two of us. A1 has a throw in from there own baseline/endline. The throw is very near the division line. A2 controls ball - all 3 points in front court. Then pivots and his back foot goes across div. line. My partner calls Over & Back. This happened right in front of A's coach. The next dead ball I have to explain to the coach why it was called. Sorry this is so drawn out but sometimes it's hard to understand where these coaches are coming from. And this is just the first two weeks!!!!
