SEC Tourney Enforcement
Do the officials in the SEC not enforce the shirt in the pant rule. Throughout the first two contests in Tampa today players had shirts hanging out and no correction was made by the officials. What's going on?:confused:

Maybe they were a little too busy actually officiating the game??? :)

It's in the rule book
First, case in point. Having players with shirts tucked in is in the rule book...should it not be enforced. Tallest player on court shirt hanging out and official standing next to him. C'mon enforce the rule.
As for too busy officiating the game...the KY-Ole Miss game was very sloppy and the crew if at best was at a "C" level. Seems the SEC officials see themselves as bigger than the game. The crew for Miss State and Georgia, also, did not enforce the rule, but much better job on the court. |

I assure you that there aren't too many coaches, especially in the SEC tournament, calling the coordinator of officials to complain about untucked shirttails. |

Did they completely miss any plays?

We still need to have players tuck in the shirts during the game...we have plenty of opportunities to take care of this. I understand your comments about missing the big picture. |

I have no idea what level anyone else here works, but I can tell you from firsthand knowledge that enforcing something that is "in the book" but is not considered important by a conference supervisor can lead to a shorter career of working for that conference. I would guess that the SEC commish and supervisor have told the officials that untucked shirts are NOT to be a priority at this tournament. If so, then those officials will do what they need to do to continue working at that level - regards of whether any HS officials sitting on their a$$e$ at home think the shirts should be tucked in or not. |
