Another book Tech

Needless to say, the other coach was not happy and he complained to the assignment chair, who happens to be the head rules interpreter for our state and also assigns two college leagues I work in. He told me I was wrong for applying a college rule to a HS game. I took him at his word, and did not check the actual wording of the NFHS book saying list rather than score book. My fault.


I only make two types of statements on the forum, definitive and smart-assed. I don't anticipate this changing any time in the near future, but I will think about consulting the NFHS book first.

Let me get this part straight. HB said that you should have given a administrative T, even if the mistake was clerical and not submitting the incorrect information? I had a similar situation in the playoffs and we figured out the mistake was on the scorekeeper. We also did not assess a T when the sk realized he made a mistake. And it was the sk that brought the situation to our attention.

That is bound to happen when those positions are filled on factors not relating to rules knowledge....as is apparently the case in some states.

Yes, HB said we should have given them an administrative technical, and yes it was a mistake by the scorekeeper. The coach in question is the biggest ******* in his conference, school located in Blue Island. Perhaps, HB was just flustered from having to argue with that jackass for an hour before he called me, but that is definitely what was said.
