With the hair/headband stuff, we can have the player sit; with non-unsporting situations, we can still issue a T; obviously none of us want to be the bad guy, but like I said in the OP, it just puts us in a lousy position...
Not everything is about the NF. I am sure each state has a policy to handle this or to ignore it based on their member schools or personally situations. And it is silly to penalize a team when in many cases the teams are not responsible for such action. In the playoffs for example it is very possible that no teams are responsible for who is playing. So why create a rule to penalize someone when there would be an inappropriate penalty?
