Then either the officials or the broadcaster were wrong (or there was something really weird like a violation on one of the attempts)

I was kind of involved in the situation with the pinstripes as the official that noticed it called me for advice for what to do. He contacted many parties and called me to report what he was told. Then I called the tournament director to let him know they might have a problem. I really do not understand why this is such a big deal, but those are the rules and I guess they must be followed as we have nothing else important to do. Peace

Heard of another situation involving pinstripes today. The FT shooter bounced the first one about halfway to the basket, and stepped over the line on the second. The other coach "didn't want to win that way." He ended up losing by 1 point.

Probably same tournament, same school.

That was the game yesterday (hence the picture in the paper this morning), and yes. I heard that Hinsdale missed the free throw(s) on purpose as well.

And if you want to be seen as blatantly ignoring a rule, then do not enforce it. I hate this as much as anyone, but I have too much to lose to care what the schools think. The schools ultimately should have known when they got those jerseys what was legal or not and should be put ultimately responsibility. If they choose to do that, they would not be in that situation. And I am not sacrificing my accomplishments for a school who cannot read the rulebook or review the rules. And I really have no sympathy in this state where for the last 3 years or so this has been a big deal. It is like knowing you are driving in a place that will ticket you for 2 miles over the speed limit and going around and going 10 miles over and then complaining you had to pay the fine. Peace

Maybe it needs to start with the jersey makers themselves. When a school calls in an order, the manufacturer can tell the school whether or not the jersey is legal. |

You have it backwards. The schools should know whether or not what they desire is legal. Manufacturers can't account for all the different rules throughout the country.
