What does “on to the court” mean? The reason I say that is because depending on the gym they might have a foot onto the court and I am not going to nit pick that. Was he as the 3 point line? Was he at the FT line? There are different degrees of being on the court.

Secondly our state administrator (boy's basketball) backed off from his very strict stance last year. He wanted us focusing more on game management than give a T to a coach that has their foot out of the box. The impression that I got is if they are coaching and not being unsportsmanlike that we can warn a coach to get back into the box. I think they realized that our focus is not always on the coach and every where they stand and did not want to burden officials with such a strict policy. Or at least that is kind of what he said during this summer. I have not heard another major issue about the coaching box before the season and during the season.
