Coach on the court. What is your call?

2005-06 NFHS Basketball Rules Interpretations

SITUATION 12: Team B has just scored to go up by three points with time running out in the fourth quarter. Player A1 inbounds the ball to A2 close to the sideline of Team B's bench. A2 releases a three-point try just prior to the horn sounding. Substitute B7 leaves the bench area, enters the court and blocks the shot. RULING: B7 shall be charged with two technical fouls and ejected. One technical foul is assessed for entering the court without permission and one for unsporting conduct. Any member of Team A may shoot the four free throws for the technical fouls. The results of these free throws will determine if the game is over or going into overtime. COMMENT: Two technical fouls must be assessed in this situation. Otherwise, the team committing the infraction would benefit from the act. (10-4-1; 10-4-2)

Apple situation to the orange play posted in the OP.

Nevada this may have been asked before but do you have a cross reference rolodex of rules that points you back to an appropriate year for a rule interp. Or are you just that amazing?

I went ahead and highlighted the important part of this interp; you know, the part that explains why two Ts must be issued here. Oddly, it's also the part that makes this completely different than the OP.

A coach 10 feet on the court is going to get at least a warning from me (and only one).

A warning? Are you serious?

This is a no-brainer T.

Coach - I'm only going to tell you this once. You can't be 10 feet out on the floor - I simply will not tolerate that. You stay within 8 feet of the sideline or I'm going to have to do something drastic! I mean it.

Note I said "at least." I say that because I'm averse to the term "automatic."

If he's requesting a timeout and he's completely out of the play, I'll give him one warning. That's the only thing I can come up with that might mitigate the call, though.

Unfortunately, too many people hold this opinion. They seem to believe that it is okay for the coach to run out onto the court to request a time-out. I'm not in the camp which excuses that.

The coaches need to understand that they have to communicate their request from within the confines of the coaching box. Perhaps they could learn to have their players echo the request.

Perhaps my problem is I've never actually seen a coach come onto the court so far. Here, they just get louder, or closer along the sideline, to get me to hear them.

Amen to getting the players to echo, that stopped when they got the ability to request it themselves.

In my case, being hearing-impaired, I tell the coaches that if I'm in front of your bench and I don't hear you requesting time out, feel free to come onto the court to tap me on the shoulder and say "time-out". But if they come on for any other reason, automatic T from me. I will not let them abuse that little bit o' freedom.

EDIT: corrected.

Perhaps this is why you aren't listening to the veteran officials on this forum.

Please, for the love of all that's holy, put this interp away! Every time it appears in public it sets off another wave of posters arguing to impose multiple penalties for single infractions.
