A situation I experienced as a TK in a frantic sequence at the end of regulation time prompted this question. As a TK, knowing what a clock-horn will do in this situation is significant to me. In a very, very noisy gym, a very short horn blast, e.g., two tenths, may not be well heard. A full blast is more likely to be heard, even over the noise. I guess I can just test each clock beforehand to know what I've got.

Not always is the clock going to be allowed to run all the way down to :00.0 before the game.

Since he's the tiemr, I believe he is probably the one who gets to decide whether it runs all the way down or not. Good grief.

For example: here for Varsity Games, once the minute horn sounds the clock is stopped & reset to 8:00 & team introductions are done. The same was done during 3A/4A Regionals last year. It would not surprise me if the same procedure is to be used for the JUCO Tournament in March.

None of that means a thing. If the guy needs to learn about the horn, he can allow the time to run down and see what the horn sounds like. eagle, could you do us all a favor and just STFU?

BBR can you be a little bit circumspect? There are many times over the years you have been more overbearing than CHS has been.

All I am saying is that not always will it be allowed for the clock to completely run to zero for pregame. Also I am being civilized in my responses, please do the same.
