One Player, Four Timeouts
Have you ever had to credit one player with calling four timeouts in a game? Last Friday we had one player get trapped four times and he paniced and called four timeouts. I called all four and he probably had a one or two second count on all of them. After the fourth timeout I went to the coach and told him that he had one timeout left but that only #2 could call it....the coach started to laugh and told me that he probably wasn't going to be on All-Conference Academic Team.

I do not know if I have had 4 players in a single year since coaches have been given the right to request for a timeout, let alone in one game.

Only time in recent memory I've had a player ask, they had none. It was late in a close game, ball on the floor, trying to avoid a held ball call, at least 2, possibly 3 guys made the T signal. Coach had a fit.
"I didn't call timeout!" "At least 2 players did coach." All the players denied it.

Especially not this coach. We could hear them in their locker room after the game. It was quite a profanity festival.

It might be better for the players to request time-outs. Teams could get a few extra seconds due to surprise recovery! |

I have had several this month. More than in the last several years combined. One I remember a few years ago really flummoxed the table personnel as they were expecting the C sign. V officials cracked up at the table reaction.
One this year saved the game for his team. Halfcourt trap with 6 seconds left and a tie score. They ended up winning at the buzzer.
