Closure ...
 

Thanks bucky. Great citation.

"Say goodnight Gracie."

Still doesn't address what is the only real question in this conversation: can other subs come in before the disqualified player is replaced?

Bucky's citation backs up what 95% of us already do.

As I have stated before: Hold all of the other Substitutes (A6, A7, B6, B7, etc.) that are already waiting to enter and then bring in the Substitute (B8) for the Disqualified Player (B1) first and then 1 nanosecond (1x10**-9 seconds) after B6 has been beckoned into the Game beckon in A6, A7, B6, B7, etc.

MTD, Sr.

I've been saying that also. But Billy was saying his state or local IAABO chapter put out something saying you can bring other subs in first.

IAABO Versus NFHS ...
 

IAABO International told us to let them all in on our 2024-25 Refresher Exam.

26) B-1 fouls A-1, committing their fifth personal foul. While waiting for B-1’s replacement, A-6 and A-7 approach the table to enter the game. The official denies their entry, stating that A-6 and A-7 must wait and enter with B-1’s replacement. Was the official correct?

IAABO answer is "No". Reference cited for this question is 3-3-1-C.

On the IAABO International level, there was an IAABO representative (who edits our IAABO Refresher Exams questions and answers) on the NFHS 2024-25 rules committee.

But not everyone belongs to IAABO, there are only 15,000 IAABO members and there are certainly a lot more basketball officials than that.

Could somebody please post a current NFHS rule citation for holding some, or all, other substitutes until the replacement it made?

Best Practice ...
 

Is this a "best practice" (to which I agree) or an actual NFHS rule and/or and actual NFHS mechanic?

If so, a citation please.

No. It (apparently) doesn't exist. Despite how many times you ask the question. Maybe next year.

Always Listen To bob ...
 

So IAABO didn't cite a rule that explicitly states other subs can come in first? The only thing stating that is that answer key for the quiz.

If It's Not Illegal, Then It's Legal ...
 

... nor does there appear to a NFHS citation explicitly stating that other subs cannot come in first.

... and my inquiries up the ladder beginning at the local and state level and eventually to the IAABO International interpreter who sat on the NFHS 2024-25 rules committee and writes our IAABO Refresher Exam questions and answers.

Hey, it happened way back in late October, but let's remember that I used to be on Raymond's (and others) side until I got the question wrong on the exam and then, after much research and inquiry, switched teams.

I think eventually you'll be on the wrong side of history once somebody at the NFHS or IAABO actually thinks this thing through.

Make Disqualified Substitutions Great Again ...
 

I certainly hope so. It was so easy back in the good old days. For over forty years we were locally told to not allow any substitutions, nor grant any timeout requests, until after the disqualified player had been replaced.

This allowed us to take care of business, the notifications to both the head coach and to the disqualified player, and then the timely replacement of the disqualified player, with no other distractions.
