No matter what though, the head coach is NOT charged with an indirect technical foul and he does NOT lose the box. Rule 10-3-2. And....even if the coach had been given an indirect "T" before the game, he would not be disqualified if he received a direct "T" later. You need 2 direct "T"s or a total of 3 directs and indirects for disqualification. Rule 10-5-NOTE2.
You screwed up big-time, podner. Learn from it. |
I have to disagree with you, JR. New rule change this year--per 10-5-4 the technical foul for a player participating with an illegal uniform is charged directly to the head coach. The only possible misapplication by the OP was the timing of the T.
