Here we go again.
First game last night. Runner on the ground gets nailed late. I flag for PF. Coach says, "You can't call that. He didn't hit him with the helmet." That's another one for the book I am going to write some day. Apparently, "helmet" is the only word he remembers from the rules clinic discussion about targeting and defenseless player.
Why do we set the bar so low for coaches' rules knowledge? I told some coaches at a recent workshop that I did that their team would have an advantage if they knew the rules.
