Both my umpire and me flagged an illegal helmet contact foul (the second personal foul on this player). I had talked to this player twice about his conduct.


Did you judge the helmet contact to be flagrant? If so, dump him. If not, march off the 15 yards and move on.

The game was getting a little out of hond so I envoked 1.1.6 and removed the player from the contest.

Iowa has an ejection rule but I thought that removal of the player was in the best interest of the game so I would not have to eject later on.

Is what I did the way to go or did I overstep my authority?



I would have let the head coach know what was going on and there was a pretty good chance he would have taken care of this for you. No coach wants to lose a player to ejection this close to playoff time. Personally, I think you overstepped your authority on this one.
