Sure you did. You wrote, "Again, never do what can't be explained logically or can't be justified by the rules."

Now, please, please, please tell me where I wrote that he was part of the JV staff. I said he's part of the basketball coaching staff at the school. If he starts abusing officials, whether standing on the floor or sitting in the stands, I have no problem calling a technical foul on him and getting rid of him. The JV coach is not going to lose the coaching box but his team will be penalized for this coach's behavior. Further, the NCHSAA is going to get rid of him for two more games, at the JV and varsity level.

As long as he's sitting in the stands, setting a proper example and not inserting himself into the game, he can sit there forever. Ordinary fan pulls that crap, who cares? But this guy knows better and he'll pay the price.

Again, thankfully, we have the local and state association backing. Using the fan rule to apply to this situation is perfectly legal and acceptable.
