Direct vs. Indirect
 

I'm having a problem with grasping the whole indirect technical concept. When does it apply? and what is the punishment? Any quick and dirty guidelines would be appreciated.:confused:

The technical foul summary on page 72 of the rule book is a quick, excellent resource to review for this subject. It shows the different situations where the T can be an indirect on the HC. Direct T to the HC is always when he/she does something to deserve it. Indirects to HC are when someone considered bench personnel receives a direct T. Just review the summary.

Are you talking about NF or NCAA? NCAA is quite a bit more involved, I too would love to hear any tricks for getting these straight....

Actually it isn't anymore. They cleaned up[ Rule 10 and divided all T's into 3 categories: Administrative, Player/Sub, and Bench. Makes it pretty simple.

But you can still have an indirect T on a player in NCAA whereas there is no such thing in NF, correct?

True in NCAAM -- NCAAW is now much more like FED.

What Bob said.:p
