I'd let the kid play, under the case where a jersey is changed to a different color because the original has blood on it.

Yes, I know it's differetn -- but it points out that there are times when the jerseys don't have to match, and having more kids than jerseys just might be one of those times.

In the OP's case if the opposing coach said it was OK I'm inclined to agree with you. I was answering his question in regards to if the player could play or if a T could buy the player in.

Different story though if you have a bleeding situation. The rules do allow for an exception to the jersey not matching color, as long as it isn't confusing. However this would be the only case where you could play a player with a uniform that doesn't match his team in color.

Please cite a rule or case play that states that this is the only case.

Its the only exception given in the case book that I can find. Unless there's another then its the only exception. Case Book 3-3-6A

The prescribed penalty for wearing an illegal jerseycan be found in rule 10-2. Illegal jerseys are defined in rule 3-4-6. The NFHS has made it clear that violating 3-4-6b is penalized according to 10-2. Why do you propose that we should exclude 3-4-6a from this?
