Yet Another Foot-On-The-Sideline Thread

[Hawks Coach]

I had to explain to one of my players on Saturday. I have never coached the "straddle," but one of my players plays HS ball with another player who was coached, and blah blah blah . . .

Anyhow, she gets called for her third foul, a block, and says that she set herself and even straddled the line. I just looked at her and said, "That's why it's a good call!" Told her I would tell her the whole thing later, but all she needed to know was that there is a new way to rule on that play this year.

I don't know that it's even why she got the block, but it could have been and should have been.
