Usually a kid that is a problem can be figured out early in the game. I am not sure I would have allowed this kid that much leeway until the 3rd quarter. I have no problem with the T at this time. It just makes me wonder if this kid was not complaining a lot during the 1st 2 quarters and this behavior. If this had been addressed earlier in the game when there were signs of this complaining (if there were signs), then you might not have had to T this kid. I have no problem with the T for what the kid said. It is a JV game and that kid should be worrying about trying to get better so he will one day play the varsity. Officiating should not be is focus. Whether we like it or not, when you give a T it can bring a greater focus on what we do and how we reacted to this behavior and previous behaviors during the course of the game.
