JR has the closer Case play, 3.5 SitC...in regards to ..."not needed to play the game and are not considered to be appropriate" language in that particular ruling.
my point about "mr. t's jewelry" was a bad example, what i was getting at is that most of the time when it comes to that something like that, you are not going to have any idea what they have on under their warmups therefore why worry about it...and there is no "penalty" per se for him having it on, other than telling them to take it off if you see it...earrings sure you would see them, but again if you ask him to take it off and he doesn't do it right away what are you going to do? are you going to stay on him and follow him until he does or are you going to just watch to make sure that he does before the game starts? personally i would do the latter...the ipod is interesting, like i said i am curious as to how this is handled in college..."not considered to be appropriate", how's that for a cop-out...by whose standards? They should address this situation specifically given the popularity...and you better believe that if a coach is enough to let his kid wear one during warmups, he would argue like hell if you told the kid to take it off...not a reason on its own to allow him to wear one, but when it comes to confrontation before the game starts, I would generally like to avoid it unless forced to deal with a situation....
