NFHS 2-12-6 says the scorekeeper shall " notify a team and its coach, through an official, whenever that team is granted its final allotted charged time-out."
So the coach and at least one official should be aware when the coach has used his last timeout.
Can you call a T on the table? Then why penalize the team? If the coach has recorded that he still has 1 timeout left, and the scorebook says he doesn't, who wins the argument? Are you still going to T the coach because the table isn't competant?
