Second, I spend more time with the NCAA rules, but I believe an NFHS coach may stand to request a timeout once they have been belted. I may be wrong, so someone please correct me if so.
I am obviously in the minority on this board with my philosophy. I have found that the most successful officials are the ones who can accurately apply the rules. This includes realizing there are "gray" areas of the rulebook subject to interpretation. Great discussion though......

I deal with both rule sets. In NFHS the coach may stand to request a T/O once seatbelted.
But my point is that we shouldn't have to put so many variables in play to make a decision. Say it was an NCAA game in which this occurred, would it matter if the coach in question had previously received a warning or T for being outside the coach's box?
