No, I was not saying an incorrect report, but rather what is considered an inappropriate report. The coaches can evaluate officials in Nebraska, and the state does send out evaluators. I've heard some officials got docked for using the coach's name in reporting the technical to the table instead of "blue head coach" (or whatever color his/her team is).

Me: "I've got a technical foul on the blue assistant coach."
Scorer: "Which one?"
Me: "The obnoxious one. Oh wait, that doesn't narrow it down. Sorry."
