Not to sound insensitive but i know it will come across that way- As officials do we need to ask the coach in pregame about any unusual circumstances that has occurred that might provoke a reaction like this after a big play. If so what numbers would be allowed to do this so we can make note.
I think the coach needs to handle this stuff. Talk to kids prior to the game and explain the consequences. If someone wants to pay tribute to a fallen teammate like the above play they have from the 25 yard line to the 25 yard line in their team box do whatever they so desire.
I hate seeing the officials blamed for something they are not privy too. We have the rules we enforce the rules.
Tough as it may sound but I can honestly say I dont read pregame articles on schools as to know what is going on in the personal lives of kids.
Just my two cents worth
