This is a situation related to this topic. VERY small town school. We are talking a gas station and a stop sign. Gym is terrible. Only coach on the bench is the head coach. School cant afford to pay an assistant and there is not team manager/book keeper. Scoreboard tells the score, time, quarter, and who is in the bonus. Basically, there is no way for the coach to know how many fouls are against a certain player without direct contact with the book. If I am not mistaken, the head coach is not suppose to have any direct contact with the book. Can he verbally ask during the course of the game or at intermission how many fouls a certain player has?
By rule, the head coach can't go the bench for information; automatic "T" if he does. In a case like this though, as long as he just approaches the scorer, asks and gets his info, and then goes back to his bench, and he isn't doing it over and over and over or bothering/disturbing the scorer, it ain't a nit I'm gonna pick.
