The crew doesn't have to start the game until they're satisfied that things are in order. That's the only authority you need.

It is not a matter of us having the authority to remove the coach, it is not our place to even say anything about it unless they're doing something in the current game that would get them removed. They're just a spectator (or a coach for which we do not determine eligibility).

If their suspension requires that they be out of the gym, that is an issue for the state/league. If it is reported and confirmed, the state/league will be the one to deal with it. The penalty for not obeying the suspension may be that they forfeit that game (that is what the state has done here when a coach violated his suspension by being in the gym).

Wow...90 minutes late!

We were 35 minutes late Tuesday night because of Senior night.

I don't want to sound like it's that big a deal...but, just saying.

If we know there is a ceremony we ask for the time frames and let game admin know we're going go back to the locker room during the ceremony.

Easy, it has nothing to do with us. There was a Senior night tonight and we did not come out until the ceremony was over. No one makes us be there as it is not apart of our job description.

Three overtimes will do that when combined with 120 fouls that needed callin.
