IW or not?
NFHS rules. I'm the assistant this game. We get an offensive rebound and I yell for them to "bring it out", to reset. Ref had his back to us, blew his whistle, and , seemed to know his mistake right away. Because he goes, "did you say 'timeout'"? Anyway, he grants us a timeout, and insists on us taking it. I try to argue for inadvertent whistle to no avail. I try to point out that I'm not even the head coach.
I know we talked about this recently, but I can't remember the situation where you have to make them take the timeout. I didn't think this was it. |
This is not it. I would rule IW for your situation.

Definitely would be an IW for me. That doesn't even remotely sound like "timeout" except for the word "out". Sheesh. I do hate the "five out" play, though...

I would of ruled an IW. Doesn't even sound close to timeout like you usually hear with "five out"

Quote:
Team B head coach requests and is erroneously granted a time-out by an official; or (b) the Team A head coach is yelling “side out” offensive instructions to his/her team and the official stops play believing the coach requested a time-out. RULING: In (a), Team B is entitled to use the time-out since it was requested and granted; once granted it cannot be revoked and is charged to Team B. All privileges and rights permitted during a charged time-out are available to both teams. Play will resume with a Team A throw-in nearest to where play was stopped. In (b), an accidental whistle has occurred. Team A was not requesting a time-out, and therefore, should not be granted or charged with one. Play is resumed at the point of interruption. (4-36-1; 4-36-2a) |

I wonder if any coach has approached any of you before a game and given you a head's up? |
