Now tell us how you would handle it, if the situation confronted you during a game. Take the OP situation in which one coach directly addresses you about it. What are you going to do? |

And are you telling me that you don't know what the substitution rules are? Gee, the opposing coach certainly knows the correct applicable rules, doesn't he? Maybe he can train you. He's probably already asking you why the game ain't going on and whether the other coach is going to be charged with a TO because he stopped the game for something that isn't a correctable error. Of course, if you hadda followed the rules from the git-go and charged the coach with that TO for delaying the game by asking his questions, he could have legally put his sub in anyway at the end of that TO, couldn't he? If a coach doesn't know that he can sub at the end of a TO, then maybe he needs the opposing coach to teach him that too. The opposing coach seems to be the only one in the gym that knows the rules anyway. |

Well, JR, I have three things for you:
1. Perhaps we should give Mr. Opposing Coach the whistle and see how he does! 2. I advocated the time-out method in my very first post in this thread. Am I to understand that that is how you would handle it? 3. I cited the technical foul rules for delaying the game by preventing the making of the ball promptly live in my second post in this thread. Are you advocating applying those since the coach's substitution question held up the administration of the throw-in? |

Rule 2 Section 3

I agree that I would allow the substitution. Eligibility rules are not part of the NFHS rulebook. Therefore, any reasonable decision made by the Referee would be correct. I was taught in school that there are Correct Decisions; Good Decisions and Right Decisions. This is probably one of those times where there is more than one correct one. In reading these responses, I think that charging the team with a timeout is the Right Call.. |

Really. How do you know if Coach A is incorrect and is just working you? Especially if #32 is the star of Team B. I'd leave that alone and let Team A file an official protest with their State Association.

2) Did you ever advocate simply following the existing rules and informing the coach that he wasn't going to be allowed to get a sub in but he was going to be charged with a TO for stopping the game to ask the questions? Getting a sub in after that charged TO kinda follows that course naturally anyway imo, whether you have to tell the coach that he can do that or not. 3) I'd perform a self-orchidectomy on myself before I'd call a technical foul in that situation. Hell, if I even thought of doing so, I'd probably slap myself upside the head. And the best part is......later you can logically explain what you've done and why you've done it, with all the accompanying little rules citations, to the league/state body, as well as your assignor or rules interpreter... if any of them ask. And....meanwhile, the opposing pissed-off coach hasn't any grounds at all for any kind of a complaint against you. |

Just tell the coach to call a time out and then he can get he sub in. We all know the the 6 Quarter rule isn't in the NFHS book. However if the opposing coach doesn't care about it and thinks that the coach shouldn't have allowed the player to start the quarter then his argument is valid that the official can't just allow a sub in with out a TO being called. |

Reminds me of the movie "Hoosiers", player was benched for discipline and when his player fouled out the coach did not allow the last player on the bench to enter. Good Times!
