Since 0 and 00 can't play at the same time, where's the confusion?

I think I'll start verifying it's correct whenever I see 0 or 00 in the book and save the headache.

It doesn't matter what's in the book, only what is on the roster that the team submitted to the official scorer.

Doesn't preclude me from verifying it's correctly input so I don't have to deal with it later. I prefer dealing with any book issues before the game, not during the game.

So is it an administrative tech or a direct to the coach for an illegal uniform? What if both numbers are present can the coach avoid the tech by not playing one of them?

The relevant rule then is 10-6-4: "The head coach shall not permit a tam member to participate while wearing an illegal uniform (see 3-4)".

Does that answer the above question? Or is there some other casebook or interpretation that steers us in a different direction?

What part of the uniform was illegal? 0 is a legal number. Your cite would be relevant if the player was wearing 88, for example.

The relevant cite is "changing a number in the scorebook to match what the player is wearing." (or whatever the specific wording is)

Would we consider one of the jerseys illegal if there were players wearing 0 & 00?
