Only T in recent memory I regret was a district championship game several years ago where during a dead ball two players got their arms tangled up and as they got them untangled one kid gave a little extra swing with his arms.
I called a T and my mindset at the time was that this was the 3rd time these two teams had played each other in 2 weeks and I wanted to clean the game up early as this was in the 1st quarter. The HC who's kid I whacked did not like it at all obviously. And talking at half time with my partners, one didnt really like it. And I didnt really like it. Saw the same HC at the state tournament later a few weeks later and I actually initiated a convo with him about it. He said that's one where I'd like to see an official get the kids together and say knock it off. I actually agreed with him. Oh and FTR, I cannot ever see myself giving a coach a T for saying JC TO HIS PLAYER. Its not something any of my assigners would want called either. IMO you are much better served leaving that one alone. |

Only one I regret... early in my career I was working a girls varsity game in N. Illinois. Coach didn't agree with my call and took his glasses off and asked if I needed them. I wacked him, but I wish I had just said that they weren't doing him any good so why would I want them. To this day I think he was testing me there to see what my response was and he would have appreciated the comment more.

If that was a test, then you passed. If you let a coach do that to you and DON'T issue a technical, you have failed yourself.
