Actually,you said that there was NO such rule in the rulebook.That statement was proved completely false,but you refused to admit it.
You are right JR, I said there is no such rule and there still is not such rule requiring for us as officials to inform a coach how many timeouts they have, when they run out. That is a scorers' responsibility and if they never say a thing to us, it goes by the waistside. It is not in our duties, which suggest to me that the NF does not want us always asking the table or trying to do their job for them. [/B]
NFHS Rule 2-11-6 states "the scorers shall record the time-out information charged to each team(who and when)and notify a team and a coach,THROUGH AN OFFICIAL,whenever that team is granted it's final allotted charged time-out". Seems pretty simple to me that there IS a rule in the FED book and it is one of our duties. Btw,don't try and play with the language,Rut. Here's your quote from your post on the McGriff board- "Maybe this is a regional thing,but by rule it is not our job to have definite knowledge.It is a courtesy to give that information to a team...It's not even the scorekeeper's job to tell them other than asked".
That is plain and simply wrong,as many posters pointed out to you.That's all I've gotta say about this.
