No problem Dan...we have had the same situation here in our area several times - not surprisingly, all with the same school...both coaches are howlers...

Hehehe
SEE EDITING BELOW:
And the "Washington" guys nail another. That is the EXACT interpretation that I got when I called SEVEN states (Including NC, IN and IL) today. "At the level" to most states means that if a Varsity Coach was ejected from a JV game he could not be on the bench of the JV game for the length of the punishment. That coach would certainly be allowed to coach the varsity game. EditEditEditEditEditEditEditEditEditEditEditEditEd it This thread bothered me so much I made a trip back to my office TONIGHT to check my notes: I apologize to Tony. I DID NOT talk to North Carolina, that is on my list of unretruned calls. I trust that he will forgive my thoughtless comments. I also made four more calls to guys I once worked basketball with in three additonal states and found ANOTHER interesting fact: One of these states has NO penalty (i.e. a coach is tossed and serves no additional penalty) and one state (as stated above) will not allow ANY coach (football, basketball, baseball, soccer, etc.) to attend any further games that day (night). And another state goes by the "same level" type ruling. Another state "fines" coaches (schools) for ejections. Again, I am sorry for my mis-information. I still will practice being a trouble maker however. [Edited by Tim C on Nov 4th, 2002 at 09:42 PM] |

Dear sir, I don't make up interesting rulings. The following statement is directly from the NCHSAA Ejection Policy. "Anytime a student/coach is ejected from a game/meet, <B>he/she does not participate/coach the remainder of the day."</B> If you did indeed call the NCHSAA, I would be interested to know who you spoke with and what number you dialed. But I doubt very seriously that you made any calls whatsoever. |
Ahemm,
Please refer to my edited post and apology listed above.

Thank you, sir. Apology accepted.
Just to clarify my original statement, so there are no misunderstandings, the coach would not be able to coach the varsity game on the same evening. From there, he would be suspended, barred from even being in the building during the next two JV games. He would be allowed to coach during any varsity contests that were played while serving the JV suspension. BTW, the folks at the NCHSAA office were quite busy on Monday, regarding enrollment figures that will affect the upcoming football playoffs. The numbers have been dealyed for several weeks, so I'm quite sure they were busy, fielding a lot of questions concerning this issue. |

I should have also noted that in OH a 2nd ejection of a coach or player during a season results in disqualification for the year from all sports. |
Just for the record, anyone who pursues knowing the details for their state, might also want to ask what would happen if a coach was ejected from a game at which he was spectating.
We had a situation here in Oregon where a varsity coach was sitting in the stands during the JV game, ref made a call that coach didn't like, coach got heated and started yelling a lot, ref tossed him, then said that since the coach had to remain out of the gym for the rest of the night, he couldn't coach the varsity game. There are a number of questions about the incident but the relevant one is, was the ref right about the all-night extension of the ejection? The coach didin't think so, called the commissioner (on a cell phone from the parking lot!) and the commissioner spoke with the ref, who was not doing the varsity game anyway, and let the coach do the var. Unfortunately, it made the paper the next day. |

be kept from working his own game. Unless there's some general ethics violation involved. But these aren't covered by the fed rules, imo. |

I would view this as a case of a fan getting the boot. If the host managers want to let him back in, who am I to get in the way? The coach was not partaking in his official duties when ejected, so you apply a different standard. Now, I would hope the host school would apply the same rules to him as they would the leather lung dad who gets the gate, but it is not up to us to enforce or lose sleep over. This situation is not the place for the officials or a commish. It is up to the host school and the fan. If the fan happens to be the coach... |
I tried to get Brian's comments into here, but something is very weird.
But Brian is right, of course, the coach called the commish to get the commish to call off the ref. I will only say, in viewing the collateral damage, I'm glad I wasn't the ref that did this!! |
