Boys' V coach, early this past season: "He's in the lane! He's in the lane! How come you're not calling that????"
Me, at C: "Coach, the ball's still in the backcourt."
Coach: (quiet rest of the game)
Funny you should mention that...

Monday, 8th grade boys game. I'm the T administering on the sideline directly in front of B's bench. A1 shuffles his feet and moves maybe 6-12 inches. The coach starts yelling, "He's travelling!!!!!!!!!! Call it!!!!!!"

After the ball is inbounded, I call a foul on B1, walk towards the table with the coaching staring at me with a, "WTF" look on his face. I say, "Coach, there's no travelling or dribbling rules during a throw in, I'll show you the book after the game if you want." Coach looked at me even more puzzled than before. All I could do was laugh inside.
