Now obviously the kids can't play with them and by rule they can't take them off at the bench. They need to go back to the locker room and change. Now, by rule, the coach can't send 3 other players in to start the game otherwise it would be an admin tech for changing the starters. Is it acceptable to hold the game to let them change or is a DOG warranted here? Couldn't find this in the case book but would like a specific rule reference if possible.
Designated starters can be changed for illegal equipment without penalty. rule 3-2-2(a) nfhs. you cannot change designated starter for illegal equipment in NCAA M without penalty. 10-2b
