Official correcting improper Time out call

I wish this were always the case. I've had soooo many "cool cucumber" coaches who will stand up, glance my way, quietly say "time out" and not even make a gesture, other than to tuck their shirt tail in. Give me something to work with, please.

I agree, in my experience, it happens this way quite often. I'd guess around 32.534123413431515% of the time.

Heck, I'd even get one of my players to change his name to "Ty Mount" so I could be sure to try to get his attention at such a critical point in the game. 😉

GREAT! (sarc) Coaches (overt and covert to the forum) are now passing this around for use in their rec leagues this yr! Like I don't have enough to worry about! 😮

Coach - "Ty Mout!"
Ref - Tweet!! "Time Out"
Coach - "What?"
Ref - "You yelled Time Out"
Coach - "No, I was yelling at #16 Ty Mout, trying to get his attention and he wasn't paying attention."
Ref - Tweet!! "Let's go gentlemen, Blue, going that way."
And so it goes......

Yeah, 'cause rec league refs are paying attention to the new case plays.

Actually, I've fwd'ed Bob's advice to start yelling SIDE OUT with 2 seconds left in a 10 count.......

Don't let the coach get away with this! Assess the T for the illegal jersey number 😀

Nice catch. I'm sure that many others on this Forum, including me, missed this infraction.

Yeah, BITS was up to speed on that one! Didn't even think about it - gotta get back to the books and in the proper mindset!!

PS - But, it was rec league anyhow and we're not enforcing it too much at that level. And, as another Forum member sometimes states - That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

Not that anybody would believe me, but I did...but I chose a different comeback route!!

I did. But here players may have #16; and coaches are not allowed to ask for a time out by just screaming "TIME OUT". It's FIBA, you know. 🙂

Ok, so there is ONE thing in the FIBA rules that is better. 😀

But players are not allowed to call a time out either. The coach asks for it to the scorer, who sounds the horn at the first opportunity (dead ball and stopped clock, basically).
