blowing whistle for subs

He did address the situation where the coach sends up one sub at a time. He wants only the subs at the table when the ball became dead to be allowed to enter (within reason). If someone just picked up a foul and the coach wants to sub him out, then allow it but eliminate the lengthy sub process.

So the IHSAA director wants you to use a different sub rule than the NFHS uses? The only time a sub is not allowed who has reported during a dead ball is if they report with less than 15 seconds left in the intermission or TO.

If he wants this done that way, he needs to put out a written directive so you guys have some sort of documented backing; otherwise you'll have no rules backing to make them wait.

Snaq,

If I am reading this correctly, he is not saying to not follow the rule; he is saying to not have multiple times players being sent to the table. There was an interpretation along with an editorial change which basically suggested that subs should all be done at one time, not one here, then several seconds another later. Does that mean that we do this realistically? Of course not, but I can understand if an area wants a stricter enforcement of the rule.

Peace

You might be right, Rut, I may have read that wrong and applied it more broadly than the director's intent.

JRut is correct...Sorry, I probably didn't explain myself clear enough.
