I think Fed needs to think about adopting this rule. |

1 question from the article:
"If a backboard is broken with a dunk in a game, Mount said there is a technical called, but it is not a forfeit." Don't have my rule book handy, so is this another state specific rule? Can't recall seeing this in NFHS... |

I don't think he was trying to deflect the blame (although I will agree with Aggie that may be the case), just questioning why the backboard shattered when his pipsqueak guy dunked. A thunderous dunk in a previous game can make a backboard vulnerable to a light dunk in a later game. If you read his next line after the one you quoted, he wonders why the backboard wasn't inspected after that thunderous dunk. I wonder also, because you never know after each game where there has been a hard dunk whether the next game's simple dunk could lead to a shattered backboard. What if this dunk hadn't happened during pregame but during the game itself? How many players would have been under the backboard when all that glass came down? You probably see where I'm going with this.

I thought Montana was a place where Russian submarine officers go after being granted asylum.

Another gym here, has sets in a balcony overlooking the endline on one end. I kind of don't like that one because then someone could stand right above me and drop snot boogers on my head. Ewww. |

Its his assertion that he, from the locker room, HEARD a thunderous dunk -- whatever that means. What does a dunk sound like, especially from the locker room? Was it thunderous due to the actual dunk or due to the applause? How did he know which board it was without asking? Why didn't he initiate the inspection prior to taking his team on the court? This was all after the fact and clearly an attempt to deflect blame. |
