Official Book
Is the head coach of the home team allowed to take the official book into the locker room at halftime? I saw a coach do this last night and thought it seemed strange.

ouch!

I think you have a sense of the answer...

It is a technical foul in college.
If it was taken to the locker room by the scorer, it is an administrative technical. If it is taken at the direction of the head coach, it is a direct T (women) or Class B T (men.) A.R. 8 Rule 2-9.12 and 10-2.4 |

2.11.11 SITUATION: Team A’s scorebook is the official scorebook for the game. Team A’s scorer is requested by Team A’s head coach to bring the scorebook to the locker room at halftime to review several pieces of information. RULING: Prohibited; the scorebook shall remain at the table throughout the game, including all intermissions. There is no specific penalty for removing the scorebook; however, if the officials believe the scorebook was removed as an unsporting act, it could be penalized accordingly. (10-1-8; 10-3-6; 10-4-1) |

Can I get an AMEN? |
The Officials did not know it was gone. The Coach took it after the Officials checked in at the table and it was returned before th Officials returned. The game was blowout but I thought that did not seem like it would be allowable.

This might be about the only case where I'd personally even dream about handing out a "T" to someone for screwing around with the book. |
