I quit bringing blank VHS tapes and mailers years ago because they didn't come back.
I've mentioned writing something into our next contracts with the schools. Several heads nod but nothing beyond that. Like everything else here, it wouldn't happen unless the state mandated it.

We still get tapes on about 30% of our games but they aren't always helpful. The camera only follows the ball (and sometimes not so well) and the quality is so grainy it's hard to see specifics. It is also so far back that you can't clearly holding in the middle of the line or something in front of the runner. They also only show snap to end of down so you miss anything that happens between plays. My favorite though is hearing comments by the cameraman or others around him. I wonder if they realize we sometimes get copies.
