In a) you instruct the players that they MUST stand behind the division line, and Team A Coach tells his/her players to stay put (he doesn't say anything to you); and in b) you instruct the players that they MUST stand behind the division line, and Team A Coach begins to argue with YOU that you are wrong. In BOTH instances the players from Team A do not move to the division line as you instructed. What do you do?
How about this.....the rules say that players don't have to move to the division line. If an official instructs players that they must do so, then that official doesn't know the rules. The Team A coach was right iow.

What do you do? Let the players stand where the A coach told them to.

NFHS rule 8-1-5.
