I am interested in finding out the different attitudes and expectations that officials have when it comes to dealing with assistant coaches before and during games. Do you deal with them?? If not, why and if you do, why and how??
I treat Asst. Coaches with the same respect as I do with any other Coach.
I answer all their questions, although sometimes I have to remind them that they must be seated.
But, mostly, in the past, I have "used" them to parlay a message to the head coach that is busy, or a head coach that is on the edge of "going away" and of whom I no longer have any use.
