Forfeit of Game
Bear with me guys; I'm trying to make my way thru the 2010 NCAA Rule Book (though in bits and pieces). I appreciate all of your responses so far...
Another question regarding the UIC forfeiting a game, NCAA rules: I have always thought that if a player, coach, authorized team member gets ejected but refuses to leave the game, the UIC could have the game forfeited by that offending team. I don't quite understand what "...the game is suspended..." means in NCAA Rule 5-12-f. NCAA 5-12-f: "SECTION 12. A game shall be forfeited only as a last resort; however, a game may be forfeited by the umpire-in-chief, after consultation with the umpiring crew, in favor of the team not at fault in the following cases: f. If the order for the removal of a player, coach or team personnel is not obeyed, the game is suspended until the order of removal is corrected (see 3-6-d)." If I am reading this correctly, if a coach absolutely refuses to leave the field, the game is suspended (to a later date, NOT FORFEITED), even though the line in Section 12 says "the game may be fofeited by the UIC...in the following cases:" And there are a-thru-h cases listed. Am I reading too much into this case (f)? Can the game be forfeited by the UIC if a coach just does not want to leave the field? Last edited by cookie; Mon Sep 27, 2010 at 03:21am. |
