I'm going to have to assume there was something else there that the camera didn't pick up cause I'm just not seeing anything.

Dakota plans to protest the outcome of a boys high school basketball game the Cougars thought they had won.

I wonder how that turned out?

"They called the technical after the time had expired," the Dakota coach said. "In our opinion, if a foul cannot be assessed after the game has ended, the technical is improper."

Not saying I agree with the T here, but it is safe to say that Dakota doesnt know the rules.

I read the Macomb daily article and found the local broadcast of the game if any are interested. About 1:24 into the vidie is the play, complete with the broadcasters call.

They were innacurate, biased, and opinonated? What else could you ask for?

Personally, I found them comical........"the refs swallowed their whistles." Indeed!

Thanks for the new video link-That youtube video was grainy at best.I don't know what the officials came up with for techs because I was watching the tape without audio.Here is what I came up with even though I am a lowly scorekeeper-

A.Dakota's coach knows better than to say he's going to protest because every state has a rule that you can only protest eligibility not misapplication of a rule and that technical fouls can be given from the time the officials enter the floor until the time they leave.

B.I had a technical foul on the green bench for excessive celebration (For their celebration going into the white bench) a technical foul on green #25 for shoving as the teams were returning to their benches,and a technical foul on green #23 for shoving at the beginning of the celebration.Didn't have anything on the white bench or team.Can anyone tell me what they actually came up with since I was watching it without sound.

C.Poor game management from white regarding crowd control-Any PA announcer with any reasonable amount of experience would've made an annoucement to stay off the floor during the last time out before green brought the ball up and scored.Host school staff should've been in front of each set of bleachers as crowd control.

They only called one T, as only two shots were taken, sending the game into OT.

I thought the whole point of this was that he doesn't know better because he doesn't know the rule regarding officials jurisdiction.

Padgett-you are right that the guy evidently does not know the official's jurisdiction rule.I now understand why you came up with the name "Howler Monkey" for coaches.

I applaud the officials for finishing the game until they had left the visual confines. The team in green was classless in their post-game antics. Well deserved 'T' IMO.
