All I mean is the kid better have told that he's not tucking in his unifrom after u have asked him to before u send him out. And he better say some T worthy stuff loud enough for all to hear before you T him.

T worthy here is "no" after being directed to tuck. I have only sent one player to the bench for this, and I had no trouble with him the rest of that or the next game.

I will add, though, that if I decide to draw this line, it's not going to be the first time I've dealt with that kid that game, and again, the coach will be informed of the ramifications of continued beligerence from his player. But once the line is drawn, you have to have some spine.

Sounds to me that you worry way too much about what others are going to think about you handling what needs to be handled.

If a kid is instructed to do something and refuses to do it, that alone is enough to justify a technical foul by rule. Whether that's the way you want to handle it is up to you, of course, but it's not something I'd lose sleep over.

I didn't read every post closely, but I have a question for those that aren't going to give the kid a T. Actually two questions.

1. What rule are you using to clear the lane when the kid shoots? Sorry if I am not reading this correctly (I'm tired right now), but I think I am understanding this correctly.
2. What would you do if the kid finished shooting, tucked in his shirt and both the player and coach made a huge fuss saying he/she shouldn't come out of the game? It could eventually result in a T.

1. 3.3.5 Situation A tells you to clear the lane.
2. Too late...explain to coach why he's coming out (his player didn't listen the first time), tell the coach he has 20 seconds and go from there.

Can you copy/paste the case play? I'm in a secret location without books...really...kind of...

As far as your answer to my second question, what are you going to do if the coach doesn't have a sub after 20 seconds and what conversation - if any - are you going to entertain during the 20 seconds?

Someone has already posted the case book play earlier in the thread.

3.3.5 SITUATION A: B1 fouls A1. Just before A1 goes to the line for a one-andone, the official observes: (a) A1 pull the shirt out of his/her pants; or (b) A1’s pants being worn below the hips. RULING: In both (a) and (b), A1 will be directed to put the shirt in the pants or pull up the pants, and must leave the game immediately following his/her last free throw(s). The lane is cleared for the free throw and Team B is awarded the ball for a throw-in, whether or not the last free throw is successful. COMMENT: A charged time-out by Team A does not alter the requirement for A1 to leave the game

And I would do what I'd regularly do if a coach doesn't have a replacement after 20 seconds. If he wants to push it and doesn't have a sub ready, then he's going to get a T. I'm not going to entertain anything during the 20 seconds. I'll give him an explanation BEFORE I start the 20 but he's not using that 20 to complain to me.
