Pre-game Introduction

[JRutledge]

I know guys that do state things about the coaching box and I have done so in the past. I usually want to say as little about rules during those meetings as possible so you do not have to make a big issue later. Now our state last year made a big deal about the coaching box and threatened post season assignments if not enforced to their liking, many officials including myself did make comments about the box. This year our state kind of backed off of such a strict expectation so now I do not say a word about the box. The only time I might say something if the box is not properly marked, but after that I leave it alone.

Peace
